A steep little crag within a short walk from Diffwys Road. From Blaenau follow the A470 South West just after the Manod Pub take a sharp left onto Diffwys Road. Follow this to the end, it can be narrow in places. Park up at the end of the road. There might be some issues with Parking, so parking further down or in the town itself might be easier. From the top car park the crag is visible just up the path (300m) below the slate spoil heaps. 

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.
