Foel Goch

Hiking

5.0

(24)

Foel Goch is one of

the principal summits of the Northern Glyderau, the great chain of peaks on the

western side of the Nant Ffrancon valley. From the top, you are treated to a

magnificent panorama, with the Snowdon massif rising to the south, the huge

pyramid of Pen yr Ole Wen glaring back across the valley and the rocky spine of

Tryfan beyond Y Garn’s throne-like form.

    Hiking

    Superb hill to hike on a sky blue summer day. Super views of Snowdon and the Glyder range. We came up from the Nant Peris side on a scorching day. For route details and photographs click here: komoot.com/tour/249459675
