Moel Eilio & Moel Cynghorion from Llanberis

About trip

Seen from Snowdon, three miles away to the south east, Moel Eilio and its neighbouring tops appear a bit like diminutive grassy hills such is the greater height and rugged terrain of Snowdonia's highest peak. Appearances however do not tell the whole story and at 726 metres (2382 feet) Moel Eilio is no mere hill. These hills offer a worthy day out in their own right and not just when the higher tops are in cloud, in fact one of the more positive aspects of the horseshoe walk is the views far and wide.
