The route takes us up the Rhyd Ddu Path and down the Ranger Path, a distance of 16km (10 miles) with an ascent and descent of 1000m (3280ft). The Rhyd Ddu path is not too difficult and is one of the quieter routes with some spectacular views. This is a long mountain walk with a lot of climbing, although never particularly steep, it is relentless up and down and is often rough underfoot. The ridge walking near the summit is suitable for all abilities, but you do need a good head for heights. More information on the routes can be found here.
