With Rufus from lay-by on A543 at SH 90126 54956. Through gate in lay-by and across reasonably good terrain to the summit of Pen yr Orsedd. West to track and followed it south to a short ascent to summit of Moel Rhiwlug. Followed fence NW to unnamed summit at SH 87966 55789 (challenging bog crossing at low point) and crossed fence to pick up a faint track that almost reaches the summit of Penbryn-ci. Returned same way but skirted under Moel Rhiwlug and from the gate on the bridle way track I contoured around to the road and lay-by. 2.5 hours with great views of the Carneddau.jacobrichmond15/03/2020

From Moel Seisiog. Some helpfully sited gates on the way. Very wet in places and best to stick to the high ground. Returned towards Seisiog and picked up eastern farm track, though this is much poorer than the other.milimana15/09/2017
