1st of 5 hills today- out an backs from the car on a wet and windy day so started late as a result. 
Parked up at road intersection then walked down lane, over gate and along track that rises and then veered off this for the summit, visiting and climbing onto large rocky outcrop and making sure to visit the high ground to the West. Back the same way then onwards to Bryniau Ystumcegid.. | Dazingdale | 23/09/2023 |
S along the path from the NNW, Various fields and a little circumnavigating to avoid cows. | clivevilla | 23/08/2021 |
Turned left at Pentrefelin, coming from Criccieth. Carry on along the road then turn left again similar to sleepwa1ker. I parked just past the cattle grid in a passing place as there's enough room still. Then walk up the road on your left there's a rusty gate, I think it's a footpath as there's also slate steps over the wall if you go to the top of the feild. Past another feild and you see some boulders to your left. We didn't notice the cows until the summit, luckily they didn't notice us :) | Skarletk | 08/08/2021 |

From road to S - a mud-fest through the farm and cattle pasture. Large boulder sits a few metres to W of rounded hill top, it looked to overtop it but difficult to say. | jonglew | 09/10/2017 |
Solo walk: Craig-y-garn - Bryniau Ystumcegid - Bryn Braich-y-saint - Criccieth in unrelenting drizzle and sea-level cloud. Nice being able to get to the top on ROWs. Rather dominated by the pylons! | Mark Jackson | 21/08/2016 |
Nordic walk out from Criccieth. Took lane north from town and track over golf course, then east on lane to Braich y saint. Then past farm and up to summit using track on west side of the hill. Then continued north to lane and south-west to rejoin my outward route. Solo. | Man of Kernow1 | 11/06/2016 |
From SW, followed path through farmyard. | Herbert Anchovy | 26/05/2015 |
As RHW, but wish I had not forgotten the three gates when I drove off W. | GordonAdshead | 26/04/2015 |
From SW, summit close to RoW. Very large boulder (erratic?) just fails to overtop grassy summit | RHW | 20/04/2015 |
