Tips

Kit P

April 6, 2022

This saddle lies just south west of Craig y Grut and offers fantastic views of both Snowdon and Cadair Idris. It's a steep but enjoyable hike from Barmouth or Tal-y-Bont and several trails lead in different directions from the pass. There's a cairn where the paths converge.
