Moel Eilio, Mountain summit in Snowdonia, Wales.
Located northwest of Snowdon, Moel Eilio stands at 726 meters high with two subsidiary peaks, Foel Gron and Foel Goch, forming a curved ridge.
The mountain appears in multiple mountaineering guides, including Terry Marsh's 'The Summits of Snowdonia' and the Nuttalls' comprehensive documentation of Welsh peaks.
The name Moel Eilio comes from Welsh language elements, combining 'moel' meaning bare hill with 'Eilio,' pronounced as [mɔil eiliɔ] by local speakers.
Hikers can start their ascent from Llanberis, following the path through Bwlch y Groes and continuing along the north ridge to reach the summit.
The mountain experiences annual temperatures around 6°C, with its flat, grassy slopes collecting substantial snow during winter months.
