Climbing the Great Orme via Ty Gwyn Road from Llandudno's West Shore offers a short but fiercely steep alternative ascent. Prepare for an immediate, intense challenge as this narrow road kicks upwards brutally, averaging around 9.7% but hitting savage ramps well over 20%, potentially touching 25% in places. Experience a full-gas effort demanding your lowest gears, rewarded quickly by spectacular views unfolding behind you over West Shore, the Conwy estuary, and towards Snowdonia.
