Llyn-y-Foel (Welsh for 'lake of the mountain') is a lake in Snowdonia, Wales.
It lies at 535m altitude at the foot of the main ridge of Moel Siabod at grid reference SH 714 547.
The deep brown colour of the water, caused by the peat in the immediate area, gives rise to a unique type of brown trout which can only be found in this lake.
Although the lake bears the name Llyn y Foel, it does have another name - Llyn Llygad yr Ych, the Lake of the Ox's Eye - which recounts a tale about an ox that lost an eye under the strain of pulling the dreadful afanc from Betws y Coed to Glaslyn below Snowdon.
