Overview

Starting from the free car park in Croesor. The walk will take us on the road uphill out of the village and up onto the ridge (no exposure) and up the short easy scramble to the summit of Cnicht, before we head to Rhosydd quarry via Llyn Yr Adar. The section from the lake to the quarry can be boggy, so gaiters and waterproof boots would be ideal. There will be a chance to look inside the adit at the disused Croesor quarry, about 500mtrs easy walk in but head torches will be required.

The pace of the walk will be that of the slowest person, plenty of stops for taking on food and drinks.

This walk will be subject to weather conditions and subject to change as per any dynamic risk assessments on the day. Please contact Merwyn on mervcarpenter2023@outlook.com should you require any further information.
