South Wales Mountain Cache Challenge 16 is number sixteen in a series of thirty caches that have been placed in the South Wales mountains.
The South Wales Mountain Cache Challenge has thirty caches placed in various parts of the upland areas of the Principality. A mountain is defined as being at least 2000 feet high, but here in Wales, we like to call some of higher hills mountains as well, and so several of the caches have been placed in areas that I perceive to be beautiful, but do not fall within the definition of a mountain!
Please also understand that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and is an entirely subjective view!
Many of the caches have been placed in the mountains within the Brecon Beacons National Park.
SWMCC 16 has been placed near to the summit of Cefn Yr Ystrad, a little visited 2000 foot mountain. Immediately to the north is the disused Trefil Quarry that has left a massive scar on the land within the national park.
BUT, when you're on top of the mountain, you will experience a vista for the full 360 degrees. To the south, the South Wales valleys are visible. To the west you will be looking at the Black Mountain range. North west will see you looking at the Central Beacons. To the north east you will see the Black Mountains, and east Llangynidir Moor.
Do not forget to look for a clue within the cache, as to find number thirty in the series, you will need 17 clues that are hidden in the first 29 caches in the series.
Enjoy!
