Yr Eifl, Mountain summit in Llŷn Peninsula, Wales.
The Yr Eifl mountain consists of three distinct peaks, with the central summit Garn Ganol reaching an elevation of 561 meters above sea level.
The Iron Age hillfort of Tre'r Ceiri, located on the southeastern peak at 485 meters, stands as one of the largest prehistoric fortifications in Europe.
The Welsh name Tre'r Ceiri translates to 'settlement of the giants,' reflecting local linguistic connections to ancient tales of the region.
Multiple walking paths lead to the summit from the villages of Llithfaen, Llanaelhaearn, and Trefor, offering different starting points for visitors.
The granite quarries near Garn Fôr supplied materials for the curling stones used during the 2006 Winter Olympics competition.
