From Beddgelert to Pont Aberglasyit then up Cym Bychan past a line of old copper mines and some old pylons that would have carried the ore back down the valley. Over the top of the ridge then a very steep rough trail back down to the village. Found out that a slightly longer but easier trail runs north to the valley then back into Beddgelert.
Nice sunny morning, with good views across to Snowdon and other local mountains. It was due to give way to low cloud and drizzle mid arfternoon and the weather man was pretty accurate so it was good to get out early for the walk.
