From the Wikipedia article
Moel Hebog (Welsh for 'bare hill of the hawk') is a mountain in Snowdonia, north Wales, rising to 783 metres (2,569 feet) above sea level and dominating the western view from the village of Beddgelert. The name means "hill of the hawk" in Welsh. It is the principal summit of a range that extends through the north-western corner of Snowdonia, which includes the Nantlle Ridge and Mynydd Mawr. Geologically significant, the mountain comprises a complex succession of Cambrian and Ordovician rocks, including volcanic formations from the Snowdon Volcanic Group. The most prominent secondary summits are Moel yr Ogof (655 m), which contains a cave traditionally associated with Owain Glyndŵr, and Moel Lefn (638 m). As a Marilyn, Hewitt and Nuttall, Moel Hebog is a popular destination for hillwalkers, offering expansive views of Snowdon and the surrounding landscape.
