Took quarry track between Carreg y Foel Gron and Y Garnedd, made a beeline straight to Moel Gamallt. Walked N to pick up faint track along wall W to a good track heading S to near the summit of Moel Wnog. Vehicle track and quarry incline to Craig y Garred Lwyd and a simple walk back towards Carreg y Foel Gron. | jacobrichmond | 26/03/2020 |

| Parked in the viewpoint car park off B4391 and headed off cross-country against the grain of the land via Bryn-glas, fording a stream and tackling a barbed wire fence. Then worked round the cwm to climb to the summit from the south-east, with one more fence to tackle to reach it. Walk continued over the next Pedwar. Solo, on a brilliant warm sunny day. | Man of Kernow1 | 01/11/2015 |
