    This is an easier and safer path but longer.

    The route i have chosen to decent from is the perhaps the more clearly marked so it can be easier to navigate in low light.
    BWLCH Y DDEUFAEN
    Probably the easier way out, with a fence to follow all the way down if it's dark. However, this exit point is quite remote.
    Continue northwards over Drum, then follow the fence to Carnedd y Ddelw and down Drosgyl. The fence becomes a wall towards the end.
    Turn right along a wide track to finish.

    About the Calorie Calculator

    Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

    When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

    Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
