Steep rocky descent from Garnedd Goch to hole in stone wall, crossing into field and heading across the slope south east towards a crossing point and back up gentle slope following path to summit of Mynydd Graig Goch. The high point is not the trig point with the flag but a group of boulders at opposite end of the summit. Less windier this end of the range and great views of the Llyn Peninsula | giant_hiker | 31/08/2024 |

1st of 10 hills on a 21km traverse from Pant-glas to Carmel, 1st via fields and gates to open access land then Ene then over a wall at 335m then again at 550m to reach summit area exploring NW top first then heading over to true summit. Misty and atmospheric conditions but improving with glimpses of sunlight starting to break through. Continuation to Garnedd Goch... | Dazingdale | 29/09/2023 |

From close to the high point of the minor road due west a permissive path leads across sheep pastures to the hill. A good staked path goes almost to the very rocky top. Great views. | Campbell Singer | 01/03/2023 |

Clockwise skyline of Cwm Dulyn, with Lesley. Good paths and views. High point is a balancing act to stand on haha. | Nick Canute | 27/01/2023 |
Final of three 'Nuttall walks' on the same day. Parked at 241 spot height and followed good and pleasant paths. Top is surprisingly jagged and rocky. Fine sea/sunset views. | Mark Jackson | 25/11/2022 |
Nantlle ridge best walked E to W but as winds so high yesterday it was impossible, so hiked in to Cae Amos bothy for the night via Cwm Pennant, very good bothy. 
from bothy 08.45 a long hike first west then north on FP mostly along wall line, some rough gound esp lower down. Then 90 degree turn left as wall levels, to reach summit outcrops. | richardrosser | 20/10/2022 |

Mynydd Graig Goch (610m), Garnedd Goch (700m) and Craig Cwm Silyn (734m) from Llyn Cwndulyn. Low cloud to begin, lifted just before we climbed into it, a clear sunny but breezy day throughout. Route completed with ShadowFlux. | meltdiceburg | 12/03/2022 |
Started at start of track to the lake above Nebo. Good path all the way to the wall near the summit with high point just beyond. Numerous other high points, went out to the cairn a couple of hundred metres to the SE which looks almost as high. | dickscroop | 22/12/2021 |
Turned right at Nebo. Parked by the lake. There's a footpath going to the summit, very straight forward, takes about an hour to go up, less to go down. It was wet so you can do it quicker on a dry day. | Skarletk | 29/10/2021 |

Final top of the day followed path back down to carpark. | colinfielding | 23/07/2021 |
Seventh of seven summits. Out and back from Rhyd-Ddu. Perfect weather for climbing. Bit of a trek out to this one especially with having to go all the way around but greeted by a weathered Cymru flag at the top. No surprise to see nobody on this section of the route. | muzza2 | 22/06/2021 |
Short walk from the NW. Parked at road corner by pt 241, but there is parking beside the reservoir. | JK | 19/06/2021 |

From the track to Llyn Cwm Dulyn, with MP and Aw. Descent via Bwlch Cwmdulyn. | Man of Kernow1 | 10/04/2021 |
8.6 mile circular from road bend at Pant-Y-Gog, we tried to find path across Cors-Y-Llyn but saw no trace, also the signposts had been taken down, instead we walked towards Cwm Dulyn and followed parallel path by wall to another minor road then followed track footpaths to road and car park near Maen-Llwyd, the fiddly bit now done we headed along track and then up trail along edge of Clogwyn-Y-Cysgod up to lovely summit of Craig Cwm Silyn, from here we turned back and followed path up easily onto Garnedd-Goch with its half a trig, then we descended steeply to ROW and followed good trail onto Mynydd Graig Goch and its lovely rocky summit, crossing handy new ladder stile over wall by summit and easily descending back to Cwm Dulyn and car. Amazing clear and sunny conditions with good views, A few people about. | DanTrig | 17/09/2020 |

A 13 mile walk using Nuttall's route the one change I would make is the return to Rhyd-Ddu from Craig Cwm Silyn its not that good and looked better et return to Mynydd Tal-y mignedd and follow the ridge down to the deserted quarry. | WAYNE ROWLETT | 01/06/2019 |
