Glasgwm, Mountain summit in Gwynedd, United Kingdom.

Glasgwm rises to 779 meters above sea level within the Aran range of southern Snowdonia, featuring steep slopes and rocky outcrops along its face.

Local shepherds maintain traditional Welsh farming practices on the mountain slopes, continuing centuries-old methods of hill sheep management.

Hikers can access the summit from the Cwm Cywarch starting point, following established paths that lead to the large conical cairn at the top.

Next to the summit lies Llyn y Fign, among the largest high-altitude lakes situated near a peak over 700 meters in England and Wales.
