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.
Guiding a couple over the Glyders for the day did the route from the Ogwen cottage up and over Bristly Ridge bagged the summits on the Glyders and then descended down Twll Du to the bottom of Idwal slabs. Good day out with some great views.
