Garn Fadryn
This walk climbs to the remote Iron Age Hillfort at Garn Fadryn in the Llyn Peninsula .
The walk starts on the southern side of the mountain where you can pick up footpaths heading up to the hill summit which stands at a height of 371 m (1,217 ft). From here you can enjoy wonderful views to Anglesey, Snowdonia, Cardigan Bay and, on a very clear day, the Wicklow Mountains in Ireland.
On the way you will also pass Garn Bach, which lies just to the east.
