Foel Grach is amountain in theCarneddau range. It is the eighth-highest summit inSnowdonia as well asWales, and is included in theWelsh 3000s.
It is located on a broad ridge extending northwards fromCarnedd Llewelyn toCarnedd Gwenllian (formerly Y Garnedd Uchaf) andFoel-fras. An emergency refuge has been built below the summit. Compared to the surrounding mountains, much deeper snow settles here due to its rather broad summit and high grassy slopes. On clear days theIsle of Man and even theMourne Mountains inNorthern Ireland can be seen from the summit.[1]
