When I was up there the train wasn’t running to the top but it didn’t make a difference. It’s also crowded pretty much all year now albeit maybe less crowded. The only way to avoid crowds is to do the sort of conditions that only very experienced mountain walkers should be out in (and even then you’ll probably see a family walking in Crocs with no kit). Pen y Fan tends to get crowded at sunrise and sunset as that’s become a trend in recent years too.
Yep its a honey pot unfortunately.
For clarity, you can't get to the summit of Anoach Mor from the summit station of Annoach Mor. It's the same with the Cairn Gorm funicular, actually. The summits are restricted to people who walk up.
Putting a fence up would stop self entitled Tepegraph readers from writing in to complain. That's at least something.
