Although not the highest, this is perhaps the most remote of the
Ystradfellte series. Mynydd y Garn is a slightly anonymous part of
the Ystradfellte region, but you can always be sure of a walk away
from the hordes of Sunday afternoon strollers and photographers
you're almost certain to meet in other parts of the Community.
In fact, if you take a closer look at the area, there are plenty
of interesting things to pick out on this seemingly barren
landscape. There are cairns, rocky outcrops, reentrants, and shake
holes to find. It's the perfect place to practise your
micronavigation skills! Also watch out for lizards, which love to
bask in the sun in this heathland.
From the cache location, you can enjoy views of Fan Llia, Fan
Nedd, and Fan Gyhirych to the north-west, while Fan Fawr, Corn Du,
and Pen y Fan rise up from the earth to the north-east.
You will find a number printed on the inside front cover of the
log book. You will need to make a note of this number in order to
find the bonus cache.
