The route
The route climbs through the woods to the summit and loop back past the ruins. Short with a steady climb and steps.
Worth knowing
- Llys Euryn at the foot is a ruined medieval hall associated with Ednyfed Fychan, seneschal to Llywelyn the Great.
- Limestone grassland on the summit holds orchids in early summer.
- Twenty minutes up for a view that takes in the whole coast.
What you’ll see
The ruined hall, limestone woodland and grassland, and the coast from Llandudno to the Dee.
Background
Ednyfed Fychan’s descendants included the Tudors, so the family that ruled England for a century began at places like this.
