Conwy - Tal y Fan - Llangelynnin - Henryd - Conwy
(route)
This walk goes up to the rugged top of Tal y Fan and returns via the ancient Llangelynnin Church in an area of many standing stones and burial chambers. The return to Conwy could be of interest as an alternative approach to the castle for Cambrian Way walkers. Check a 1:25000 map for a clearer view of the footpath sections.

Best view in Snowdonia, and an easy way up Moel Ysgyfarnogod
(route)
The obvious way to tackle Ysgyfarnogod is to climb up Clip and follow the ridge. I've tried that and got beaten back by the vegetation. This route offers a gentle walk along a grassy path that was a miners track. All the way there are superb views of Snowdonia, from the Llyn peninsula to the peaks of Blaenau Ffestiniog, with the estuary and Port Meirion below.
