Foel Goch is a subsidiary summit of Esgeiriau Gwynion, and is included in a group of hills known as the Hirnantau. These hills rise from the south east shores of Bala Lake.[1]

The summit is boggy and marked by a few stones. The views are good, with the retrospect of Foel y Geifr and Trum y Gwragedd to the south and northern Snowdonia to the north west.[2]
