Dist:0.8km<br/>A viewing area has been created with some parking space to enjoy the view from the hillside. On the day the picture was taken, RAF aircraft could be seen (and heard) training in the distance.

Dist:0.8km<br/>Not marked on the 50k map, there is a viewpoint and picnic area just to the east of a public footpath on the main road along the mountain. There are benches, tables, barbecue holders and a shelter. Behind the brick barbecue holder in the background on the left is a raised ramp with railings around it. This is the viewpoint that looks from WNW to NE affording a view of the Gwendraeth Fawr valley all the way down to Kidwelly and out to sea.

Dist:1.4km north<br/>Telephoto view from [[2247318]] . Looking across Trimsaran to the western end of the course. The first race meeting was held here in June 2009. As it says on the racecourse website http://www.ffoslasracecourse.com/general-info/introduction.php "It is almost impossible to believe that it is the former site of the largest open cast coalmine in Europe."
