The Lower car park at the junction of A498 and A4086 is £2 for 4 hours (sufficient for my short climb of Craig Fach) or £4 for 24 hours, however in the summer of 2021 the upper car park was £18 for 12 hours or £25 overnight. From spring of 2022 the upper car park will only be available via prebooking and barriers will shortly be installed according to the locals i talked to. Most people who will climb (unless they won the Lotto !) will be happy to use the lower car park or the park and ride from Nant y Peris (£5) Linkback: mountainviews.ie/summit/B2032/comment/23441/

Nearly a Vandeleur Lynam !

On a recent climb of Crib Goch, myself and my climbing companions missed this summit which was a short ten minute climb from where the Crib Goch climb starts at the Pyg track. I parked down at the lower car park on the road and followed the new 1.5 Km track up to the Pen Y Pass car park. This was quite laid out and not so steep with a few ups and downs (definitely a lot safer than trying to walk up the narrow A4086). At Pen Y Pass follow the Pyg track up as far as the start of Crib Goch and on the other side of the Pyg track follow the easy enough track for a few minutes to the summit which is unmarked and less than a metre below VL status.
