A fantastic and little-walked hill due to how steep it is, I imagine. Moel Cynghorion is a great addition when walking down the Ranger Path for some additional views without the chaos of Snowdon's summit.

A Nuttall that is slightly off the beaten track on the Snowdon massif. If you tick this one off there is a good chance you will have one of the quieter peaks to yourself.

The view here is great and less obscured by the fog that often hangs around Snowdon. Highly recommended experience.
