Itinerary description

A Climb up to mt. Tyrfan from the Ogwen valley through the heather terrace path. nice view of the valley of Ogwen lake throughtout the hike up, though I couldn't avoid some scrumbling and trail finding difficulties. Continued down to the west throught bochlwyd lake with a much easier path crossing the Idwal lake and cwm. The trail is beautiful and the cwm is fantasntic - impressive hemisphere-like landscape created by glaciers.
~800m height difference, 7hours.
