The first day of a weeks walking in Wales with Richard, and the first big walk for me since breaking my foot. We parked up at little Tryfan, crossed over the road and climbed up Pen yr Helgi Du. My foot didn’t enjoy the scramble down and up to Carnedd Llewellyn, my head liked it less so! We descended to Bethesda with a skull collector we met in the wind shelter on Llewelly, taking in Yr Elen along the way. We had intended to get the last bus of the day into Ogwen Valley, but unfortunately that ship had already sailed, so we walked back up as far as a viewpoint near the corner of the road, where we convinced a random Aussie to give us a lift back to the car…
