The Glyderau (a Welsh plural form, also known in English as the Glyders) are a mountain group in Snowdonia, North Wales. The name derives from the highest peaks in the range, Glyder Fawr and Glyder Fach. According to Sir Ifor Williams, the word "Glyder" derives from the Welsh word "Cludair", meaning a heap of stones.
I combined a classic climb with a scenic walk as my 2 clients had requested both. From Llyn Ogwen we walked to Heather Terrace, climbed Grooved Arete and then scrambled to the summit of Tryfan. From here we walked down to Idwal Cottage via Cwm Bochlwyd
