Overview

The starting point will be the stone steps that lead up into the Ogwen valley to the left of the information centre at Ogwen cottage. 

The route up to Seniors Gully will not be the direct route close to the Idwal slabs and suicide wall, but the slightly easier route to the left of this.  Easier is a relative term I appreciate.  Then up on to Seniors Ridge and then onto to the Glyderau.  The Gully is a grade one scramble in parts as is the ridge.
