Ysgafell Wen North Top, Mountain summit in Gwynedd, Wales
Ysgafell Wen North Top rises to 669 meters above sea level, featuring stone outcrops and steep edges overlooking the surrounding Welsh landscape.
The mountain has been documented in Ordnance Survey maps since the early mapping expeditions of Wales, contributing to British geographical understanding.
The name Ysgafell Wen derives from Welsh language elements meaning white ledge, reflecting the traditional Welsh practice of descriptive geographical naming.
Hikers can access the summit through established paths connecting to nearby peaks Moel Meirch and Ysgafell Wen, with parking available in Dolwyddelan.
The summit stands at the edge of Cwm Edno, surrounded by small bodies of water known as Llynnau'r Cwn, the lakes of dogs.
