6 mile stroll of 3 tops from PentrefelinMark Sims29/10/2021
With Rufus. Back into walking up all the North Wales listed hills, fallen out of the habit but noticed this one is right next to my route to work, feeling inspired again! Parked on grass at entrance to caravan site at SH 51667 39008, wasn’t too happy about the other parking options. Walked back down road to NE and took 2nd ROW on right. After 2nd gap in fence along ROW and directly S of summit took faint path up, over awkward BWF and to top in 10 minutes. Lovely view of Tremadog, Moel y Gest and the mountains.jacobrichmond02/09/2021
Parked in a car park for reception for a holiday village at 51941 39267 ESE along ROW then up through bracken to a bwf, round to the right then over and up. Descended to the E and N which was probably a little easier.clivevilla23/08/2021

Roadside verge parking to W of the hill. RoW initially then veered off NE over stock fencing and cattle pasture. Lush grassy top once the bracken's been negotiated.jonglew10/10/2017
