Round of Llyn Cowlyd tops. From Siglen up to reservoir, on to NW shoulder and N top to summit. Paths all the way some faint. Not too wet under foot. Massive quartz vein after NW top. Dropped from summit down to SW end of reservoir before ascending Pen Llithrigg and going down the NW ridge and back to Siglen over fairly featureless ground after SH726639.

Back on track following Nuttalls route in the clouds | colinfielding | 17/06/2022 |
12 mile circular from holiday cottage in Trefriw. Up steep hairpin bend road to Cefn Cyfarwydd trig point then down and along to Llyn Cowlyd. An easy-to-follow path heads up the hillside from the dam and along the sometimes boggy ridge to Creigiau Gleision North Top, then Creigiau Gleison. We retraced our steps to the boggy cwm and descended a good but sometimes boggy footpath into woods down to Llyn Crafnant. Followed tourist track along Llyn Crafnant and followed minor road then riverside footpath back to Trefriw. 905m ascent. Saw 3 people on the hill and quite a lot by Llyn Crafnant. Great views in all directions throughout. | DanTrig | 12/06/2022 |

Llithrig y Wrach and crossing over via bridge to do the two tops of Creigiau Gleision. Only problem was finding the path for the lower section of final descent but not a problem on sometimes tussocky but not difficult ground. | dickscroop | 15/12/2021 |

As part of the Creigiau Gleision horseshoe from Llyn Crafnant. Cefn Cyfarwydd, Creigiau Gleision North top, Creigiau Gleision, Craiglwyn, Craig Wen and Crimpiau. Lovely conditions though a tad boggy in places! | WelshMountainGoat38 | 24/03/2021 |
From Llyn Crafnant. Cefn Cyfarwydd, Creigiau Gleision North Top, Creigiau Gleision, Craiglwyn, Craig Wen and Crimpiau. | angelfon37 | 16/11/2020 |
Once again just limited to local walks at the moment. So, today cycled over to Crafnant for a repeat bag of Creigiau Gleision. No need to include any other tops so the forest track to the east was very handy for gaining height, and then some heather bashing up to the clagged-in summit. | Twice Shy | 14/10/2020 |
