This quarry will gradually return to nature. A footpath, which leads up or around Moel y Golfa, passes its foot. For a relatively small hill Moel y Golfa has very varied scenery, including mature beechwoods, open heather moorland, stands of mature fir and newer pine plantations, dense oakwoods, areas of scrub and grasslands, this quarry, and some fields and sheep pasture. Cracking views all around too. All in a 2 hour full ascent and return.
