Walk

1 From the car park, face away from the road and take the path to the left. The path will level out and you will find a stone wall to your right. Ignore a path to the left before reaching a marker.

2 Follow the route marker toward Llwybr Cyhoeddus taking the footpath to the right. Pass through a metal gate and go on straight ahead, cutting through the middle of the hillside. Upon reaching another path, cross over this and head straight on following the North Wales Path. You will find that the path widens out, offering some coastal views. When you reach another path, turn right. When you reach a fork in the path, take the left path. Ignore a path to the left, then another to the right.

3 When you reach another fork in the path, take the path to the right. After this, ignore paths to the right, and continue on the path you are on, with it beginning to descend in a short while.

4 Once the path levels out, turn back on yourself and progress to the path which is ahead of you on the left. You will be heading back in the direction you came from, but on a lower path instead. Continue on the grassy path, then take a path on the left which descends toward a stone wall. Turn right once you reach the track. Remain with the stone wall on your left for a while, then keep to the track where the wall reaches a corner. You will join up with the begininning section of this route, with a path on your left. This will incline slightly, before descending again through the middle of the hillside and back through the gate. When you reach the track, turn left to continue back to the lay-by where you parked.
