Stopping for lunch while on the climb up Corn Du mountain, we had this beautiful panoramic vista to look over.

On the right is Craig Fan Ddu and the three reservoirs are (from front to back) Neuadd, Pentwyn and Pontsticill.

The town in the far distance is Merthyr Tydfil.

Lunch at 824m above sea level, with a view like this – absolute bliss
