A cairn marks Moel yr Ogof's summit |
Moel yr Ogof (Moy-le uh O-gof - Bare Hill of the Cave) is a subsidiary summit of Moel Hebog.
There is a large scale syncline running NNE-SSW, that extends straight through the summit of Moel yr Ogof and can be seen clearly, in the mountain's profile, when taking the path up to the Hebog ridge from the South.
Owain Glyndŵr's cave can be found on the cliff at the eastern flank of the mountain. The Beddgelert Forest lies directly to the north east, while Cwm Pennant lies to the west. Good views of the Nantlle ridge to the north are observed.
