Y Lliwedd forms the southern arm of the Snowdon Horseshoe, a ridge with two summits and a steep north face above Llyn Llydaw. It reaches 898m (2946ft) and is a Hewitt, a Nuttall and a Marilyn. Y Lliwedd East Top (893m) is 0.2km to the south-east, Lliwedd Bach (819m) 0.5km east, and Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) (1085m), the nearest higher hill, 1.6km north-west.
