The approach to the crag due to its popularity is becoming increasingly eroded. One of the best approaches is from leaving the Cromlech boulders, head up and left and follow a small rib that makes its way into a gully, from here head across the slopes to the right back towards the main crag. The approach to Cenotaph Corner itself is now very polished take care on approach but mostly on the descent.  

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.
