| From parking area near memorial above Nant y Moch, followed track round to Nant y Baracs farm buildings and atv track almost to Drosgol summit. Descended NE to FB now shown on 1:25k map, and picked up another atv track shortly after starting to ascend Banc Llechwedd-mawr just before isolated house with solar panels. Circuit continued with N descent on obvious path through bog to Hyddgen, then to Bryn Moel, Foel Fras and Foel Grafiau. Picked up empty beer/pop cans on latter, perhaps left by those who created the wide, scarring biker tracks on the west side of the hill? Returned to car SW through woods. | richard69 | 20/10/2022 |
| Parked at 779954 for a circuit of 10 Tumps. Tracks and sheep paths, plus a fair amount of pathless terrain. 6/10 | PGCE | 13/08/2021 |
| Tussocky unmarked summit in sheep pasture, diversion from quad track ascending from barns at Hyddgen ( NB there is a bridge over the river there, not just a ford as mapped). Onto Foel Grafiau on track. | Denise | 15/05/2021 |
| 4th summit on clockwise round of 7 Tumps starting with Clipyn Du and ending on Pen y Darren. An excellent walk in wild and remote country. Terrain generally OK with some good tracks to help one along. Rough pasture summit, high point un-marked. | RichardM | 15/05/2021 |
