Gyrn Wigau, Mountain summit in Eryri, United Kingdom.
Gyrn Wigau rises to 643 meters in elevation within the Carneddau range, presenting a rocky peak surface amid the Welsh mountainous landscape.
The mountain earned its classification as a Nuttall when British mountaineers established criteria for peaks exceeding 2000 feet with 15 feet prominence.
Welsh shepherds have utilized the slopes of Gyrn Wigau for generations, maintaining traditional grazing practices within Snowdonia National Park boundaries.
Hikers access the summit through established trails from Bethesda via Cwm Caseg, requiring proper navigation equipment and weather-appropriate gear.
The summit provides views of three distinct valleys to the west, with Cwm Ffrydlas forming the northernmost natural boundary of the Carneddau range.
