Parked at 80412 39777 and went in to the walled field which was an error as the far wall is a bit difficult to get over. On the way down I walked around the perimeter which was much better. So, for going up, keep the wall on your right.clivevilla22/02/2022

Parked where road enters forest, Carnedd lago, Mochowgryn. Uninspiring tussocks and squelch but mostly able to avoid heather. Beautiful day though with good views of better places.ijpowell14/05/2016
