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.
