Today we walked towards Moel Hebog, a mountain next to Beddgelert, under a bright sun.
It became a somewhat strenuous undertaking because part of the route involves scrambling over rough rocky surfaces. The descent afterwards was quite steep, mainly on grass.
But the views are beautiful and from the top you can see very far. Worth the effort!
