This is what Country Walking Magazine had to say about this route - 

'This is one of the great British mountain walks, starting in thick oak woodland and rising to the immense rocky amphitheatre that surrounds the hidden lake of Llyn Cau. The approach to Cadair's true high point traverses a broad rocky ridgeline, climbs to a perfect pyramidal summit, then drops again before leading upwards through an ancient volcanic landscape to the trig point and shelter at Penygadair. From the 893m summit you're treated to magical views across the surrounding peaks and lakes, out to the west coast, and north to the Llyn Peninsula and the distant mountains of northern Snowdonia.'

This is a proper mountain route:

Short mileage, but big effort

Huge scenery payoff for the distance.

Please bring layers, its exposed up here and weather can change quickly!
