Access to Arenig Fawr, GW/NW-011

I usually start my ascent from near Pant-yr-Hedydd at SH846395. Today I found the minor road stopped for replacement of overhead power cables at the junction with the A4212 (SH818394) and near Bryn-Ifan (SH852392). Although pedestrian access along the road was permissible, it was being strongly (but pleasantly) discouraged. Having wrecked my schedule, I went home and watched the third (and last UK) stage of Le Tour. I was advised that the work is scheduled to go on until the end of July, but…

Ah shame that Dave, I was there a couple of weeks ago and it was fine. Still lots of work going on, but the road was open. I did Moel Llyfnant and Arenig Fawr, from SH 822 392 where you can follow a good track to the west that joins the PRoW at SH 816 389.

Still work going on today, and signs up suggesting that the road might be closed, but I had no trouble getting to park near SH 822 392, and following the route you describe Gerald.
I think that the minor road might be closed further on down, so you might not be able to get up from the Bala end of it…
