Description

Foel-goch is a small mountain in the northern Glyderau range of Snowdonia.

It is a relatively easy mountain to walk up and can be combined with an assent of Y Garn, Elidir Fawr or Carnedd y Filiast. There are two good scrambles that will take you to the summit. The first is called the Needle's eye arete (grade3) and the other is Yr Esgair(a poor grade 3). Both these routes are serious and require rock climbing skills for a safe ascent.

Thanks to the_loz for this description.
