Great day out in Snowdonia with Susan. North ridge of Tryfan, Bristly ridge on Glyder Fach and then along the broad ridge to descen via Devil’s Kitchen and Idwal. Will never get tired of this walk/scramble and have done it many times." — johnandsue4fun • Nov 13, 2022

"Parked (free) just in Co. Conwy in a lay-by at SH 66519 55945). Crossed the boggy moor up to the fine summit of Moel Berfedd, then descended steeply to Pen y Pass. Then took the Miners' Track up to the summit of Yr Wyddfa, descending by the Pyg Track. Then the path down to the A 498, reaching the car at dusk. Solo. A beautiful warm, cloudless, spring day." — marktrengove2 • Mar 30, 2021
"Well, for a lot of reasons I knew this wasn't going to be a successful summit. We didn't have rain gear and it was pouring rain, we didn't have enough water, and I had torn a huge hole in the seat of my hiking pants. Not the best combination. So we went up the Watkins Trail for about 1.2 miles to see the amazing cascading waterfalls. It was incredible and so worth it. It also solidified my desire to come back to Wales and summit Yr Wyddfa and some of the other amazing peaks in Snowdonia. Breathtaking. Gorgeous. Glorious. Waterfalls all the way up. Really, I don't have words to explain exactly how glorious this was, even though we were soaking wet and completely unprepared. Snowdonia and Wales has a hold on my heart, and I have to go back to collect. " — psychikingjes • Jul 19, 2019
