Picture: Short section of cliff halfway walk
Apart from the walk along the top of this ridge there is also a walk halfway up cliff. A wonderful way to walk back to start point.

Spectacular walk after this final part of ridge
by Fergalh 3 Nov 2020
Continuing heading south east along the ridge is Fan Hir a steep descent and a steep ascent brings you to the unmarked summit. Than a drop back to coll (Blwch Geidd) and follow a track down the hill to lake below. Than embark on a track halfway up the cliff back to the reservoir and the car park for a dramatic end to a wonderful ridge walk Linkback: mountainviews.ie/summit/B2234/comment/21240/
