The 7th highest mountain in the National Park, and the southern-most of the Caerneddau Range.

At 978-metres high, it is the same height as England's highest peak, Scafell Pike.

There are multiple different approaches to the summit, from steep and direct routes, to mellow ridge walks.

From the summit, you'll get fantastic views out to the North Wales coastline, as well as great views across the Ogwen Valley, and Llyn Idwal.
