The view is of Anglesey, Yr Eifl and by walking around you can reach common land called Comin Uwch Gwyrfai and Y Lon Wen. Nearby villages include Y Fron and Rhostryfan. Rhosgadfan is on the border of Snowdonia National Park. The nearest town is Caernarfon and the nearest city is Bangor. There are no shops in Rhosgadfan even with a population of almost 2,000. But the football club, Mountain Rangers, is very well attended and is the focal point of the village.
The closest mountain is Moel Tryfan and people from the school walk up often to collect money for educational things. Charles Darwin visited the mountain and recognised evidence of glaciation there .
