The Moelwynion (a Welsh plural, sometimes anglicised to Moelwyns) are a group of mountains in central Snowdonia. They extend from the north-east of Porthmadog to Moel Siabod, the highest of the group. The name derives from the names of the two largest mountains in the group, Moelwyn Mawr (great white hill) and Moelwyn Bach (little white hill).
Started at the parking at Croesor. Headed along the Cambrian Way over Cnicht. The conditions were very poor visibility. So I used this area to practice my nav, visited some of the lakes and checked out the old quarries at Foel Ddu. Joined up with the Snowdonia Slate trail and made my way back down before dark.
