    Hiking

    Abandoned limestone quarry. You walk among the remains of lime kilns and dumps dating from the past two centuries.
    It now also appears to be a popular bouldering site.
    The Welsh name for the site is Foel Fawr Limestone Quarry.

    Hiking

    Glorious views all round but the Komoot app struggled to track me in real time. It kept demanding I turns. I fear it may be disadvantageous if you don’t also read a map as this is a bleak area to get lost in.
