Moelwyn Mawr is a mountain in Snowdonia, North Wales and forms part of the Moelwynion. A popular hike combines both Moelwyn Mawr and Moelwyn Bach via the Craigysgafn ridge.

A steep climb to the summit (which sports a trig point) affords fantastic 360 degree views, including areas that cannot be seen without climbing.
