Bits of the Gap (mainly the climb behind Trfil Quarry and the saddle between the Cribyn and Fan Y Big). Ranger path on Snowdon. Y Das is probably the toughest climb I've ever done, like riding up a cliff. A rocky one.

Y Das isnt what it was - re-surfaced now and relatively easy as a climb.

If you go to Cwmcarn look on the other side of the valley, some rough stuff up there.

The two lakes trail around Lynn Cowlyd & Lynn Crafnant has a couple of tough bits ๐Ÿ˜€ .
Well, beyond my very limited capabilities anyway.

The stretch by the side of Llyn Cowlyd is rocky, muddy and almost impossible to maintain any kind of rhythm.

The drop back to Capel Curig from the saddle above Llyn Crafnant is similarly tough.
At least for me!

I know many people on here ride it regularly, but I just can't enjoy it.

I challenge anyone not to severely dab around Colywd! Love the Crafnant descent. Other legit trails nearby, hmm, you could have a look at Ffynnon Llugwy which is nearby and I think is legit. Probably doable by a god, but I had to clamber down sections. Super steep.
