Llwytmor

Llwytmor rises to 849 meters above sea level, featuring boulderfields and several stone cairns across its broad northern slopes in the Carneddau range.

The mountain name changed from Llwydmor to Llwytmor in the 1960s due to a typographical error on Ordnance Survey maps of the region.

The Welsh name Llwytmor Uchaf translates to upper big grey, reflecting the traditional Welsh practice of naming mountains based on their physical characteristics.

Hikers can access the summit through multiple routes from Abergwyngregyn, with the most direct path leading through Cwm Coch to the mountain top.

From the summit, visitors can see four countries on clear days: Wales, England, Ireland through the Wicklow Mountains, and the Isle of Man across the Irish Sea.
