Moel Siabod summit

Highlight • Viewpoint

There are fantastic views of Snowdonia from the top of Moel Siabod, but the weather must be clear. From the top it is possible to see 13 of the 14 highest peaks in Wales on a clear day without turning your head.

Ogwen Valley Byway (Eastern Section)

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Blue grade double track leading you from Capel Curig into the Ogwen valley. Classic views of Tryfan and the Carneddau await. After heavy rain it can become a bit muddy in places.

There are few campsites that enjoy a view as special as Gwern Gôf Isaf. The site is the perfect spot from which to admire Tryfan's unique and intimidating eastern face, which rises from the Ogwen Valley like the scaled back of some ancient, petrified leviathan.

The campsite itself has loads of space for tent pitches, as well as bunkhouse and cottage options. Hiking in the area is about more than just Tryfan, though it is admittedly a very special mountain. Fantastic trails also explore the spectacular Glyderau range, as well as the quieter, but higher, Carneddau to the north.
