Track to Llyn followed by heather bash
by Fergalh  28 Oct 2021
Head south from the town of Penmachno on the B4406 until you reach a cattle grid after a forest. This area is called Cwm Hafodyredwydd. Park at the wall here and follow track east and North East over two fences until you reach Llyn Conwy. Follow this track and over a stile towards the abandoned house. This is where the heather bash starts of around 70 metres in height which will lead you to a cairn at the summit with panoramic views in all directions Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/b3386/comment/23323/
