Parking and Approach

Park in the layby. An old, rusty (and now wired closed) gate marks the start of the descent. Climb the fence (ideally on the right as one of the blocks supporting a fence post is loose on the left). Take the vague path, which at first goes towards the lake and then drops round to the left. The main wall is pretty recognisable, but it also has a bent, rusty iron spike sticking out above head height on the left hand side. [NWB page 96]
Area information

A wide range of cliffs - mainly traditional and multi pitch inc. the popular Llanberis Pass, Idwal Slabs, Clogwyn du'r Arddu and Cwm Silyn cliffs, but also outlying outcrops such as Carreg Alltrem. Many crags are on CROW access land - but not all especially some of the outcrops which lie on private enclosed land. Most of central Snowdonia is both designated an SSSI and also is an European Special Area of Conservation on account of the upland habitat and associated geology and plants found here.
