Craig Cerrig
Gleisiad |
An easy walk of about 3 miles: Allow about 1 to 2 hours walking.
From BRECON town centre drive about 3.5 miles south on the A470 towards MERTHYR TYDFIL
After passing through
LIBANUS
Follow just under another 3 miles to a lay-by and picnic area on your Right.
This lay-by is on a left bend, next to the crag
(Grid Ref. SN 972222)
Start by going through the gate, follow the pathway up and over the next stile.
Continue straight on, follwing the Waymaked Signs. The path is quite easy to follow most
of the way.
In some places you are asked to follow a detour to help avoid erosion of the mountain. Please follow these; you will end up at the same point.
After some distance the path goes up,
curving slightly to the right.
It then curves left as it passes under a low tree. It gets steeper in
places from here.
Continue uphill until you reach the top of incline and a pathway leading to your left.
Turn sharp left and follow towards the ridge
Follow this keeping to the line of the fence to just before the Crag. Here there is a stile.
Cross over the stile, turn then turn immediately right, following the fence uphill to the top of the Crag
TAKE CARE!
The path goes very
close to the edge of the ridge
It is about 600 feet down!
Keep
to the fence and follow down the very steep incline.
(Use fence to help you keep your balance)
Near
the bottom of incline (Grid Ref. SN 969218) turn left and go down across
open ground, crossing the stream near the gate.
Turn right, cross over the stile and follow the pathway back to the car park.
