From parking at 723909. We had a snack in the car and waited for a shower to pass, then walked up the road SE ca. 200 yds before heading up the slopes to the HP. Fairly easy going on rough pasture, with fewer farmer's tracks than on the Moel y Llyn hills- to which the view of our route earlier today was very good. With Petepwheeler10/09/2023
An anticlockwise circuit of 8 Deweys from 723909, generally following GB's detailed guidance, but with deviations onto an additional 7 nearby minor peaks. Mostly easy going on grass and forest tracks in a nice remote area, but some tussocky areas. Visited summits in the following order: Banc yr Wyn, Foel Grafiau West Top, Foel Grafiau, Foel Uchaf, Foel Fras, Creigiau Bwlch Hyddgen, Pen y Darren, Pen Creigiau'r Llan North Top, Pen Creigiau'r Llan, Esgair Fraith, Banc Bwlchygarreg East Top, Banc Bwlchygarreg, Moel y llyn, Banc Bwlchygarreg West Top, and Bryn Maw (after dropping the rucksack in the car). A total distance of 24 km, with 1050m ascent, taking 8 hours.silveracorn_alan10/04/2022

Continuation of walk from Moel y Llyn. Descended south-east into the cwm, following a grassy track down it. Then picked up a fine path contouring round the north side of Cwm Ceulan back to the car, then south up to the summit. Returned much the same way to the car. Solo.Man of Kernow121/01/2017
