Garn Fadryn from the southGarn Fadryn

(371m)

At 371 metres high, Garn Fadryn doesn’t sound like a very tall hill, but due to the low land around it, it feels much higher. The steep slopes around the summit make you feel as though you are on a helicopter looking down on the fields below you. The hill fort that once occupied the plateau just down from the triangulation pillar covered a large area and seems to have been occupied at least two times at different periods of history. The height and location of the hill (it lies right at the centre of the peninsula) make it an ideal site for this. Views extend as far as Pembrokeshire, Holyhead and even the Wicklow Mountains on a clear day!

The village of Garn Fadryn is situated on the south-westerly slopes of the hill and has views across Porth Neigwl (Hell’s Mouth). Walks to the top start next to the chapel and phone box.
