It lies near the village of Bethlehem, three miles southwest of Llangadog and four miles east of Llandeilo on the southern side of the broad Towy Valley.

Background
Visiting
The entire hill is registered common land and hence freely available to walkers as access land. It is approached by minor cul-de-sac roads from east and west and a public footpath runs north-south across it. The Beacons Way which starts at Llangadog passes through the nearby village of Bethlehem before running west-east over the hill en route for the Black Mountain (Welsh: Y Mynydd Du) and eventually Abergavenny.
