| Parked at SH946273 and jumped up on to the ridge to nab the three Nuttalls on this side. Easy walking, even with it being wet under foot, distinct tracks all the way there and back. | simocity | 29/12/2023 |
| I decided to extend the day after Foel Cedig and walked this very pleasant whaleback ridge using the same startpoint of 946273. Easy access up on a faint ATV track. Great views of the Arans. | Peterb | 28/08/2023 |

Haxy, dull day, so there weren't even good views to distract from the relentless trudge through heather. | Lazylizzie | 03/09/2022 |
| Third mountain today, was about a mile walk from Trum, heading for the distinctive trip point, again great views from the top. | Buckleymon | 15/08/2022 |

Foel Goch, Trum y Gwregedd, Foel y Geifr, Pen Cerrig Duon Pen y Boncyn Trefeilw, Stac Rhos, Foel Cedig, Bwlch y Groes-fagl and Foel-y-ddinas.

| Foel y Geifr, Trum y Gwrgedd & Foel Goch from the summit of the Hirnant road with Rufus. Parking opposite track entrance, over gate and a rough/boggy atv track most of the way to the trig point of Foel y Geifr then track along ridge to other 2 summits, returned same way. Flies were awful, must be something to do with the location. Great view of Crib yr Aran. | jacobrichmond | 11/08/2020 |

| From Foel Goch and Trum y Gwragedd with my dog. Ate a pork, black pudding and quail egg pie bought from Roberts butchers in Bala. Well I had half and the dog the other half. Missed the path on the way down to road, so waded through heather and bog. Poor dog! | HH | 30/08/2018 |

| From top of Hirnant pass | Dewi Prysor | 24/07/2018 |
| Followed the Nuttall's route. Lovely sunny day with a nice cool breeze. There was some chap sitting on a stool near the summit with a large radio mast, apparently broadcasting to the nation. He was the only person I saw on the walk apart from a couple of farmers replacing a fence. | Herbert Anchovy | 23/06/2018 |
| 2/9 (Foel Cwm(Sian Llwyn)/Foel y Geifir/Trum y Gwragedd(Trum y Gwredd)/Foel Goch/Mynydd Nodol/Boncyn Foel Bacg/Cefn Ddu/Llysy Frenhwes/Foel Gasnach) | Fergalh | 20/08/2017 |
| Walked the route in section 7.5 of the Nuttalls book. Foel Goch, Trum y Gwragedd, Foel y Geifr , Pen y Boncyn Trefeilw, Stac Rhos, Cefn Gwyntog, Cyrniau Nod, Y Groes Fagl. People call these the boring Berwyns but I don't agree. How many of the hundreds of thousands who climb Snowdon and Cader Idris each year would persevere with this walk. It's a real challenge and there are some good views if the weather holds. A very steep descent to Foel Goch reminded me how unfit I've become. Great views at the top, could see Arenig Fawr, Aran Fawddy and Snowdon in the distance inbetween the snow showers. The summit of Trum y Gwragedd was tantalisingly 40 foot on the other side of a barb wire fence. I decided not to be a purist but as I walked on the guilt gnawed at me and, 200 metres later at a corner post, I decided to leave my backpack, cross over and go back to the summit. My gloves and trousers already had holes in them and I'm not sure I'd have risked it if I had been wearing new exp | tsharp | 21/03/2017 |
| finished the year with solo ascent of Foel Goch, Trum y Gwragedd and Foel y Geifr on a dull windy day. | Lou | 31/12/2016 |
| Solo walk during a weekend trip to Llangollen for a friend's Birthday. Aber Hirnant - Foel Cwm-Sian Llwyd - along ridge via all Nuttalls to Pen y Cerrig Duon - road - Foel y Geifr - north along ridge - steep descent by forest to road - road back to Aber Hirnant. A rather dull and heathery set of hills! | AGWilliamson | 18/12/2016 |

| 14 mile hard circular walk from the cattle grid at the bottom of the pass, used ill-defined footpaths up onto Pen Y Boncyn Trefeilw, then along lane to Stac Rhos up the lane to Foel Cedig and Cyrniau Nod, back down taking the pretty much pathless ridge to Cefn Gwyntog, descended and forded the stream west above the waterfall, followed lane to road, then followed lane through forest up onto the moors, struggled through hideous pathless heather up onto Cefn Coch, then across more heather to Foel Y Geifr, then down little path onto Trum Y Gwrgedd and Foel Goch back down to car with half an hour of daylight left. | DanTrig | 13/03/2016 |
