From lay-by in the Pass of Aberglaslyn at SH 59262 46847. Walked down the road, carefully, to the bridge, then round to Nantmor. Then path up Cwm Bychan, nearly to the bwlch, diverting on a minor path up onto the ridge and up to the unmarked summit of Grib Ddu. Then headed SSW, into the cwm, and up to the unmarked summit of Craig y Llan. Then steep rugged descent NNW to Beddgelert, and back by the river and A498 to the car. Solo.Man of Kernow113/06/2023

An unplanned ascent when out with a group of friends who wanted to do a bit of a lighter walk today after tackling Crib Goch the day before. After breakfast in Pete's Café we drove down to Beddgelert and climbed up here. A fine fill indeed. Took a longer route back down.Father Ted09/10/2016

Solo: too ill for the Glyders so bus to Beddgelert - Craig y Llan - Mynydd Sygyn - Moel y Dyniewyd - Mynydd Llyndy - Bethania - Cwm Dyli. Snow mostly gone at these levels. Lovely little chain of hills in heather and sun, views of greater things.Mark Jackson02/04/2013
Spring 2012, possibly 7/4. Walked from NT carpark near Nantmor along river to Beddgelert. Left the family in a cafe and then returned to the car via the top of this hill. Xan walked about 2 miles along the river a few weeks before his second birthday.Herbert Anchovy07/04/2012

fine hill overlooking beddgelert - gwynant, easy descent E to sheepfolds, direct to Nantmor car pk is heather/rock/boulder. nantmor car park - dyniewyd - cnicht RHW06/02/1999
Made a deliberate effort to visit the two summits today, walking via Aberglaslyn and Beddgelert, steeply up Mynydd Sygun (Craig y Llan) and on the twisting, heathery ridge to Sygun Fawr (Grib Ddu) before returning to Nantmor via Cwm Bychan. The reigning Marilyn I left many years- it's a chore compared with these two tops which have winding pathes accessing them. With Petepwheeler13/04/1996
