Gate near Tairderwen below Pen-y-crug This gate on a B road near a property called Tairderwen gives a good view across fields rising to the hillfort crowning the hillock called Pen-y-crug. The access path follows the skyline. It is well worth the effort of walking up; the views of the Brecon Beacons and the Usk Valley and over the town of Brecon are excellent.

Access path to Pen-y-crug hillfort near Brecon It is a steepish ascent to the summit but the footpath is wide and undulates and curves in an interesting fashion. Parking is available at a recycling pull-in opposite on the road.

The summit trig point of Pen-y-crug near Brecon On a clearer day this spot commands excellent views of the Beacons and is an excellent alternative place to walk to admire the mountains. An Iron Age hillfort was established on the summit and the multivallate ditches and ramparts are well preserved. Ferns obstruct the site in high summer.
