    The pass between the breathlessly rugged Rhinogs Fach and Fawr is notorious. Many who have explored this way have been taken aback by a rough hewn landscape of concealed boulders and heather that doesn't give up its secrets lightly.

    From the bwlch are superb views across to Lake Trawsfynydd and the Arenigs. Both Rhinog Fach and Rhinog Fawr can be ascended from here.

      This the deep narrow pass between Rhinog Fach and Rhinog Fawr. This photo shows where the path down from Rhinog Fawr meets the path that cuts through the pass, and also the steep path up Rhinog Fach. Also note how rough it is.
