Moelwynion Range
Venture into the Moelwynion, A Hidden Highland Playground
Tucked between Blaenau Ffestiniog and the Glaslyn Valley, the Moelwynion range offers a rugged slice of Snowdonia that feels steeped in both natural drama and industrial heritage. With peaks like Moelwyn Mawr, Moelwyn Bach, and Cnicht, often called the “Welsh Matterhorn”, this range delivers craggy ridges, peaceful valleys, and sweeping views without the crowds. You’ll wander past forgotten quarries, mirror-like lakes, and ancient pathways that thread through this untamed land. Whether you’re bagging summits or exploring the slate-scarred landscape, the Moelwynion promises wild beauty and true adventure. Below are mountain summits that invite you to explore.
