| Aber falls was a fab discovery - but very busy. But the crowds are quickly left behind. It's a difficult choice as to when to turn left to Llwytmor, but talking to another walker who turned left a lot later couldn't find a better path further up. Nice to visit the main ridge again. | andrewroberts | 04/06/2023 |
