GW/MW-002 - Great Rhos - 660m, 4 points

John M0JDK, Steve M0KPO decided to activate the Great Rhos on the 16th February 2008. The views on the way up are good but the summit is flat and boring offering no shelter. The walk to the summit is on a stone road for part of the way, but soon turns muddy and boggy half way up when the forest has been cut down. The summit is heather and boggy.

Tip - Do check the way up on a map, its easy to go off track as there are so many options

5.9 Miles total walk - Start SO 17290 67260


Starting point at the end of the lane
