Been here?
Parking for Parys Mountain offers good views, walks and a quiet overnight stop, although it can be very windy. The main car park has a 2.6m height restriction, with an unrestricted lay-by opposite, and recent reports found smooth tarmac. There are no facilities, but 4G is available; the old mine visitor centre is temporarily closed.

Stopped last night quiet right by pays mountain beautiful place biked round & walked a must visit place
We parked in the layby due to height restrictions in the main car park. Highly recommend walking around this area. Can't see any reason you couldn't stay overnight if you wanted.
Great place to park, looks like the car park has been recently tarmaced aswell so it’s nice and smooth. Very quiet and really interesting walk aswell
Had a lovely stroll through the copper mine and decided this was my spot for the night. However on my return a car with youngsters had arrived. Loud music and one lad was shouting the whole time. Waited it out for a bit. Then another van arrived with two vague persons in it. That’s when I left. Pitty, for it’s a beautiful spot.
Height barrier in place but plenty of space in lay bye opposite. Used for free day parking while we visited the incredible Parys Mountain site.
2.3M barrier into car park so we had to park in layby opposite, quite a few cars beeping horns through the night and some sort of late night meeting in the car park opposite at 2AM. Still a place to stop for the night.
Quite exposed, windy (obviously). No facilities to speak of and hard to find a secluded spot to wee… but we were the only people here (mid September doesn’t seem to be busy. Lots of people coming and going to enjoy the walk with friends or their dogs but no bother at all. A little road noise but otherwise quite quiet. Height restriction of 2.3meters, but a lay-by just opposite the car park is big enough for 4 or 5 larger vehicles.
God Place for overnight stays in layby but busy road..
