Craig y Benglog [Moel Cae'r-defaid East Top]

Situated in the quieter eastern reaches of the Arenigs, this rugged, heathery shoulder offers a pathless experience away from the busier summits. Rising to 525 metres, it serves as the eastern top of Moel Cae'r-defaid, providing a raw and lonely vantage point over the wild, undulating moorland characteristic of this Welsh range.

• •The name translates from Welsh as 'Crag of the Skull', where 'benglog' is often used in topography to describe a rounded, prominent landform or rocky outcrop that resembles a cranium.
• •As a subsidiary top of Moel Cae'r-defaid, it is most often visited as part of a circuit exploring the lesser-known ridges east of Arenig Fawr, though the ground is notoriously rough and lacks established trails.
• •The summit provides an excellent perspective of the Afon Lliw valley and the distant, sprawling peat bogs of the Migneint, one of the largest areas of blanket bog in Wales.
• •Navigation here requires a keen eye; while the terrain isn't technically difficult, the lack of landmarks means your compass will likely get more exercise than your camera.
