Location
Moel Emoel is a member of the Arenig range with Arenig Fawr lying approximately 7 miles (11 km) to the west. Llyn Celyn can easily be seen between Arenig Fach and Mynydd Nodol. Its parent peak, Foel Goch is 2 miles (3.2 km) northeast, and to the east, the broad ridge of the Berwyn range with Cadair Berwyn lying 10 miles (16 km) away. On a clear day the view southwest towards the nearby town of Bala, 3 miles (4.8 km) away is spectacular. Bala Lake, Aran Benllyn and the distant Cadair Idris form a fine vista. The furthest peak visible is Tarrenhendre, 28 miles (45 km) away near Abergynolwyn.
Ascent
The main route to the summit begins just outside of Bala and takes approximately 3.4 to 4 hours for a round trip. The summit is marked by stone cairn.
