From the car park S of the hill, followed Offa's Dyke path a short way, then steeply up on a path through the ferns. Good viewpoint. No obvious cairn now, just its remains. Descended more directly on a steep path by the wall.LizH18/11/2022

With Rachel from Moel Arthur car park. Ascended to gate on path, W to Moel Arthur and then E to Moel Plas-yw. After descending to the car park on the PRoW we then climbed up and down Moel Llys-y-coed.JK21/08/2022
Parked at Bwlch Penbarra car park (only £1.50 for the whole day). Firstly popped to the top of Foel Fenlli, before returning to the car to collect my rucksack for the longer journey north over Moel Famau, Moel Dywyll, Moel Llys-y-coed, then a big descent and ascent to Moel Arthur, and Moel Plas-yw. As no car to collect me, I had to walk south back along the ridge to Bwlch Panbarra. Mainly on Offa's Dyke trail with many people in glorious sunshine and a refreshing breeze. 21km with 1040m ascent in 6 hours.silveracorn_alan07/08/2022
