Vandring

Skirrid Fawr is an iconic little mountain on the edge of the Brecon Beacons National Park. Just across the valley from the Sugar Loaf and the Blorenge. All in all they make a classic local Three Peaks challenge. Don't be fooled by Skirrid's small stature, it will give you a good stiff climb from any direction.

Vandring

In older literature the spelling Skyrrid is sometimes encountered and the mountain is also referred to locally as the Holy Mountain or Sacred Hill. The ruins of an Iron Age hill fort and a mediæval chapel, dedicated to St. Michael, lie at the summit. Rudolf Hess used to walk here when he was held prisoner at nearby Maindiff Court during the early 1940s. There is a pub called The Skirrid Mountain Inn just to the north of the mountain in Llanvihangel Crucorney, which claims to be one of the oldest pubs in Wales.
