Walk 3001 - Tryfan by the North Ridge from Ogwen Valley
| Nat Park | Snowdonia | | County/Area | Conwy | | Author | Lou Johnson | | Length | 3.5 miles / 5.7 km | | Ascent | 1900 feet / 576 metres | | Grade | hard |

This challenging route to the summit of Tryfan is one the great walks and scrambles of Snowdonia. Starting from the Ogwen Valley, much of the ascent up Tryfan's north ridge involves the use of hands. In winter this route takes on a different character when ice and snow are present and should only be attempted by those experienced in winter mountaineering.
