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.
QMD after several weeks of illness. Up from reservoir layby via Elidir Fach was a perfect choice as I had to pace myself. Lovely cloud inversion at the top. 704 m ascent.
