Itinerary description

This route starts with two of Wales' best scrambles: Tryfan's north ridge, followed by Glyder Fach's Bristly Ridge. A bimble over the popular Glyder plateau follows, with a continuation over to Y Garn before we head off to find solitude on Foel Goch. Descent is via Foel Goch's airy Y Llwmllwyd spur - just when you think you can't head out any further along this narrowing limb, the path makes a sharp right turn to drop easily down to the valley.
