Running

Pen Twyn Mawr is a small top on the eastern ridge of the Waun Fach horseshoe. It stands at 2,159 feet (658 m) to the west of a large area of cleared woodland. The trail along here is good but can get a bit boggy.

Running the horseshoe clockwise means you tackle this section downhill, which makes for more enjoyable running.
