Mynydd Drws-y-coed is a peak on the Nantlle Ridge in Caernarfonshire, west of the main massifs of Snowdonia. It is at the easterly end of the ridge, and is a subsidiary summit of Trum y Ddysgl.
The mountain has steep south-facing cliffs, the summit area being the highest point on a thin ridge.[1]
The west side is very rocky and airy, and some scrambling is needed to attain the summit. A good head for heights will also be needed on the exposed regions.[2]
