112. Tal-y-Fan, 4th September, 2016

Another not very nice day, another suitably unambitious walk. Might as well pick off another of the easy eastern outliers of the Carneddau. OK. So Tal-y-Fan it is. Having just yesterday driven up the narrow hill road from Tal-y-Bont through Llanbedr-y-Cennin and found it rather hairy I thought I would try the other way up, from Ty’n-y-groes through Rowen to see if it was maybe better. It’s worse. Much of the way it is one of those single track roads with a grassy central reservation where drivers of little ordinary cars like mine will be constantly nervous of bottoming out. There is space for about one car to squeeze onto the verge where the footpath heads off up Tal-y-Fan but someone had beaten me to it so I carries on to the road end and used the car park. It’s an extremely straightforward ascent. When you get to the ridge there’s a choice of either scrambling easily along the bumpy crest or following a flatter path a little to its north. I did the former in approach, the latter in descent. Not much to report. The weather was a bit less horrible than yesterday.
