Ups and downs of Nantlle.
Once you have made the steep climb up to the summit of Y Garn you can then see the start of the Nantlle ridge walk laid out before you.
This involves a wonderfully exhilarating series of ups and downs from summits to cols and back up again with fabulous views in all directions. There are parts where you feel a sense of exposure with steep drops on either side of you, but the walk is never really technical or challenging in fine conditions.
Here is a view after leaving Y Garn on the way to the first steep scramble up Mynydd Drws-y-Coed. A great day out with John Bleakley.
