Llechog, Mountain summit in Gwynedd, United Kingdom
Llechog rises to 720 meters above sea level, featuring a rocky peak that extends over cliffs descending into the Nant Peris valley.
The mountain stands as part of the ancient Snowdon massif, marking the terminus of an extended crest of cliffs stretching from Llanberis.
The Welsh name of the mountain reflects the regional geological characteristics, referring to the stone-covered terrain of this section of Snowdonia.
Visitors can reach Llechog via multiple hiking paths from Llanberis, with the nearby Clogwyn Station serving as a connection point for the mountain railway.
The summit provides direct views of four major peaks: Glyder Fawr, Y Garn, Elidir Fawr, and Crib Goch from its position on the Snowdon range.
