Avoid the urge to forge ahead when the trig point peeps over the skyline. Instead bear R above the lowering crags that cradle Llyn Arenig Fach in the stony depths below. Follow the N rim of the plateau round to the trig point with ever-widening views of the Migneint.

Llyn Arenig Fach route (AG11)

Leave the A4212 through a gate at 845418 and thread your way up gently wooded slopes until the crags guarding Llyn Arenig Fach rear ahead and you stand on its shoreline. Lack of a path is barely noticed. Continue to the N tip of the lake where a playful track snakes up the bilberry/heather-clad slopes with consummate ease, breasting the summit plateau close by the cairn.

Bryn Du ridge route (AG12)

The best way off in thick weather.

Leave the trig point in a SE direction but bear E after 0.5 mile for the ridge. The only problem is gaining access to the road. You could do worse than aim for 845418 and ssss1.

Migneint route (AG13)

Do not underestimate this round trip of a good 12 miles of trackless walking. There are obvious shortcuts, so have a go – but choose a fine day!
