The Nantlle Ridge

About trip

This is an enjoyable walk with lots of variety. It begins at Rhyd Ddu with an easy ascent of Y Garn. It then goes on to cross the Nantlle ridge, which is a spectacular ridge, possibly second only to Crib Goch. There is a small amount of scrambling on the way up to Craig Cwm Silyn before an easy walk to Mynydd Craig Goch at the end of the ridge. Unfortunately the descent to Nantlle is rather boggy. I would recommend keeping this special walk for a good day. Also note that transport is required both ends to avoid a long walk along the road.
