Tryfan is a great mountain. Heather terrace on the east side is the best area for sun with lots of great routes. Its a long climb down so be prepared to give yourself 1-3 hours depending on the decent route. Avoid decending in gullies, this can be very dangerous. The weather can change rapidly so be prepared, take water, there is no fresh water source anywhere on Tryfan, days can be long and water is needed. The West also offers spectacular climbing, but more than often sat in the dark cold spots of Tryfan

Tryfan is very difficult to navigate on even in good conditions. If you are trying for a first assent choose a clear day. Don’t rely on GPS as you can get lost and crag-fast within meters
