Moel Eilio Loop – Snowdonia (Eryri) 25th April

Join Mountain Leader Bryn Rees Hughes for a stunning guided hike on the Moel Eilio Loop, a quiet alternative to the busy paths of Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon).
This circular route above Llanberis links three summits, Moel Eilio (726 m), Foel Gron (593 m), and Foel Goch (605 m), offering breathtaking views across Eryri National Park and a true sense of tranquillity.

Perfect for hikers with some experience who want to explore the lesser-known side of Snowdonia under professional guidance.

What to Expect
We begin in Llanberis, climbing steadily onto the open fells of Moel Eilio before following the elegant ridge over Foel Gron and Foel Goch.
With Yr Wyddfa/Snowdon visible for most of the walk, this route offers uninterrupted mountain scenery and a quieter, more reflective experience.
Bryn will share stories from Welsh history and mythology, helping you connect with the deep cultural heritage of Eryri.

This is a rewarding mountain day offering both physical challenge and peaceful solitude.

What to Bring
Walking boots with good grip

Waterproof jacket and trousers

Warm and breathable layers

Hat, gloves, and sun protection

Packed lunch and snacks

At least 1.5 litres of water

Daypack (20–30 L)

It’s an ideal opportunity to build mountain confidence, meet like-minded people, and experience the quieter side of Eryri.
