The mountain is a double topped (most southerly 678m/2224 ft, most northerly 634m/2080ft) and reaching it involves a number of ups and downs along the way, but affords splendid views in all directions, northwards to the coast, down the Ogwen Valley and Mymbyr Valley towards Snowdon.
From Creigiau Gleision we will descend to Llyn Cowlyd, Snowdonia’s deepest lake. The return journey is a romp back to Capel Curig across moors.
