frosty start, and an amazing inversion from the top. (16km, 1200m
ascent) Hard |
 |
updated 21st December
2006 - Nantlle
Ridge - shorty. Eastern summits as far as Tal-y-mignedd
and a high level return back to Rhyd Ddu. (12km, 1000m ascent) Moderate

2006 - Llyn yr Adar and Cnicht. Winter
wild camp, with autumnal weather. Decent circular walk. (20km,
850m ascent) Hard |
 |
updated 6th December
2006 Watkin Path. Wet and windy walk, enjoying the
summit to ourselves. No view however! (13.5km, 1200m ascent) Hard |
 |
updated 13th-14th October, Carnedd
Moel Siabod from Pen Y Gwryd. The best direction
to do this as a day walk is in reverse, or up Daear Ddu. This walk
was more of an add on to a wild camp than anything else. (10.5km
700m ascent) Moderate |
 |
updated 7th
- 8th October Moelwynion and Cnicht from Croesor. A day
walk that takes these hills in the opposite direction to the
ususal Cnicht-Moelwyn Mawr-Moelwyn Bach. It will need decent
navigational skills. (16km, 1000m ascent) Moderate
/ Hard |
 |
updated 16th - 17th
September Glyderau Range
Traverse. Strarting from
Deiniolen, over Elidir Fawr, Y Garn, Glyderau and down over Y Foel
Goch to Capel Curig. Makes an excellent hard day's walking, or
a nice 2 day wild camp. (21.5km, 1600m ascent) Strenuous |
 |
updated 9th
September Carneddau
- Ogwen to Aber via Drum. Similar to the walk i
did last year (link),
but descending via the Drum ridge. Generally easier
to navigate and on-path all the way, you might still find
sections awkward in thick mist. (22km, 1500m ascent) Strenuous |
 |
updated 22nd August Y
Ro Wen and Moel Penamnen circuit from Dolwyddelan.
Remarkably remote walk while still not too far from civilisation
that covers rough and pathless terrain (15km, 600m acent) Moderate
/ Hard |
 |
updated 15th August Snowdon
South Ridge from Rhyd Ddu. Arguably the best
walking route up Wales' tallest mountain. (14km, 1100m Ascent) Hard |
 |
updated 12-13th August Cadair

the main ridge, approaching from the quiet end. Finishes off

 |
updated 10th August Moel
Hebog and sattelite peaks from Beddgelert. Circuilar walk
that includes some quiet and rough terrain in view of Snowdon.
(13.5km, 940m ascent) Hard |
 |
updated 14-16th July Carneddau
from Aber to Trefriw. This is almost a mini LDP as the terrain
you pass through changes so much from the forest at Aber, the
high Carneddau and Llyn Cowlyd. (27km, 1500m ascent) Strenuous |
 |
updated 8th July Cwm
Llafar Horseshoe. Superbly remote (in parts) circular
route over Yr Elen, Carnedd Llewelyn and Carnedd Dafydd from Gerlan.
(13.5km, 1250m ascent) Hard |
 |
updated 1st July Nantlle
Ridge Circuit from Rhyd Ddu. An excellent way
to get the best out of the Nantlle Ridge without having to worry
about all those transport hassles associated with a linear traverse
of this excellent walk. (16km, 1200m ascent) Hard |
 |
updated 23rd June Yr
Aran from Rhyd Ddu. Short and sweet and full of attitude.
Just right to spend on an afternoon, or even on the way to
bag the big one. (9.5km,650m ascent) Moderate |
 |
updated 17
-18th June Dolwyddelan
Circuit - Moel Meirch and Ysgafell Wen. Another similar
walk over what can be quiet hills. (30km,
1050m ascent).Strenuous |

 |
updated 13th
May Elidir
Fawr and Y Garn from Nant Peris (11km, 1100m) . Pleasant
walk from the wrong side of this range. Much quieter than the routes
up from Ogwen, but still busy. Hard |
 |
updated 4th March Moel
Eilio in Snow (11km, 710m). This easy ridge walk takes on a new
perspective when tackled in the snow. Moderate |
 |
updated 18th February Pen
Llithrig and Helgi Du from Capel Curig. (12km, 850m). Quieter
walking in this part of the South Carneddau. Largely rough and pathless
to start with. Moderate |
 |
updated 11th February Moel
Ysgyfarnogod from Trawsfynydd (15.5km, 520m ascent). As rough
as it gets in Snowdonia. A Rhinog kilometer is what you encounter
here, where each one takes twice as long. Hard |
 |
updated 28th January Foel
Fras and Cwm Anafon from Aber. (15.5km, 920m ascent). Remote
and quiet start with a pathless ascent of Llwytmor and a wild, faint
path to descend to Llyn Anafon and Aber. Hard |
 |
updated 21st January Glyderau
from Pen y Pass (10km, 800m ascent). A couple of the Iconic
tops of Eryri. This is a quieter ascent than from Ogwen, with excellent
