| Parking in forest gateway SH315387 (not visible until on it, nasty if you are being tailgated, it’s about 30m W of the white house). Easy tx and FPs | Isbjorn | 31/01/2024 |

| from Forest entrance to the S via track and FP to top. Near summit, multiplicity of paths led me into slow heather, but used best path on descent. | IanHHill | 31/08/2023 |
| Early morning walk with Jill. Parked outside the forest gates to the south of the hill. Public footpath to summit. Concrete plinth has a trig bolt. Back same way. | Dangerous Dave | 16/07/2023 |

| From the car park by the old chapel 309404. Up the lane then followed ROW to top, path all the way a bit overgrown near the start. Off summit using path that trends SE, then forest track around to meet outgoing path. 3 mile circuit. | JulieB | 10/06/2023 |
| Parking for a couple of vehicles at forestry gate, up a couple zig zags, frosty scrubby bit then rocky, pretty easy | Tribal2er | 06/06/2023 |
| My first Marilyn for ages. With my brother Stephen and his grandchildren Caio and Maia. Ancient hut circle remains and views stunning. A sunny day. | briandavies | 07/04/2023 |
| Parked by entrance to the forestry. Nice zig zag path up to the stone settlement. Made the mistake of going through them to scramble over false summit with further scrambling to the summit after. Great views from the top and spotted easier route back that circled the settlement. When you reach the settlement would recommend that you take the left hand fork in the road as such to circle around avoiding the unnecessary scrambling… unless you fancy the adventure which was fun. | Hippy77 | 14/02/2023 |

| From near Cae'r-Bwlch by paths through dying bracken in half light. Interesting views from top of lights of the peninsula. 5/5 today when Snowdon tops were experiencing storm force conditions. | lordtonult | 07/11/2022 |

| Walked up from Nefyn.A footpath track and then a narrow path near the top. Fantastic views. | Claireb | 31/08/2022 |
| From start of forest track to SSE. Followed zig zag path which became less distinct near top. Quick up and down. Good views from top. | PeterD | 14/08/2022 |

| Up and back from S. Paths near the summit are very faint and overgrown! | twg27 | 25/06/2022 |

| With old school mates when the higher peaks where in cloud; Del, Syd, Pauline, Gina, Peach & Norman. Great views from the summit. We could see Ty Cock where we had lunch | climbingkershaw | 11/05/2022 |

| A lovely little hill. From the S on the B4354 where a very well graded path leads to the top with little efort. As usual in the LLyn there are excellent views from the summit and a very well preserved Iron Age fort. | climbingkershaw | 29/09/2021 |
| Parked at NT car park in Morfa Nefyn. Along coast path then up hill from the north. | Slash3 | 21/08/2021 |
| Forestry track from south - room for 2-3 cars at start - seems popular with local dog walkers. Clear track all the way, great views from top. Up and down in under an hour. | Crib Goch | 29/07/2021 |
| A bit boring. Vehicle Track most of the way. Parked by the footpath start. The last part is overgrown and there's some scrambling over stones. There's a few ways up, we went through lots of heather. Nice views at the top. A woodland trail through would be more interesting though. | Skarletk | 20/07/2021 |
| Car park available by disused chapel in Nefyn. Followed lane track SE past farm and through field of cows onto hill. PRoW shown on map starts off obvious but disappears somewhat as it reaches the steepening just below the summit. The PRoW shown heading SW from the summit isn't really there on the ground until you enter the trees again, which made running difficult. | Wheelsy | 27/06/2021 |
| Pleasant walk from Nefyn, although lost main path coming down. | summitter | 22/06/2021 |

| From forestry track to south up the zigzag track then path. A little overgrown at top, but easy enough to get through heather to summit. 3/7 Marilyn | N.Morters | 17/07/2020 |

| From south, easy sloped zigzag track then path through crags and thick vegetation up to old fort. Views to most other Llyn summits but most Snowdonia summits in cloud. | Topographer57 | 05/08/2019 |
| Approach from CP to S, off the B4354, using forest track then path - some high bracken to brush through at times, but path still clearly seen. Good summit views. | ger | 14/07/2019 |
| From the Tilhill road end off the B4354. Zig zag to top with some overgrown vegetation including bracken. P | NormanW | 09/07/2019 |
