Yn nhestun yr ardal mae tair adran: Mynyddoedd, Clogwyni a Bylchau. Mae pob un o'r rhannau hyn wedi'u hisrannu'n grwpiau mynydd. Mae Eryri wedi'i rhannu'n naw grŵp.

Yr enwau a ddefnyddir yw'r rhai a welir ar fapiau'r Arolwg Ordnans presennol. Mae hyn yn caniatáu i'r nodwedd gael ei lleoli, ei hastudio a'i chymharu â mapiau cynharach. Fodd bynnag, nid yw defnyddio enw, fel y'i rhoddir ar y map, yn ddilysiad cywirdeb. Mae testun unrhyw ardal yn y Gymraeg ac yn Saesneg, gellir lawrlwytho'r rhain fel ffeiliau PDF a'u cadw yn ôl yr angen. Bydd yr adrannau testun hyn yn cael eu diweddaru o bryd i'w gilydd ac ychwanegir ardaloedd mynydd eraill yn ôl yr arfer.
Edrychwch ar y ddewislen ar y brig a dewiswch pa ardal i ddarllen.
1. Bydd y gwymplen yn dangos y tri phennawd: Mynyddoedd, Clogwyni a Chreigiau, Bylchau.
2. Cliciwch ar un o'r penawdau adran a byddech yn mynd at restr o ardaloedd.
3. Gellir darllen neu lawr lwytho pob ardal fel ffeil Pdf.
4. Unwaith y caiff ei lawr lwytho gall un ddefnyddio syllwr Pdf a dylai chwiliad testun fod ar gael (trosi'r ffeil os nad yw'n caniatáu chwilio).
The names used are those as seen on the present Ordnance Survey maps. This allows the feature to be located, studied and compared with on earlier OS maps. However, the use of a name, as given on the map, is not a verification of correctness. The text of all areas will be found in Welsh and in English, these can be downloaded as PDF files and kept as required. These text sections will be updated periodically depending on changes and alterations; other mountain areas or info sections will be added as and when.
Head for the menu bar at the top of the page and choose an area.
1. The drop-down menu will show the three section headings: Mountains, Cliffs and Passes.
2. Click on a section and it will take you to a list of mountain groupings.
3. Each area grouping can be browsed or downloaded as a Pdf file.
4. Once downloaded one can use a Pdf viewer and a text search should be available (convert the file if it doesn't allow search).

Rhaid nodi bod nifer o ffynonellau wedi cael eu defnyddio wrth lunio'r wefan hon. Dylid y defnyddwyr bod yn ymwybodol bod yn rhaid parchu hawlfraint y ffynonellau hyn. Heblaw llyfrau, gall un weld eu trefniadau hawlfraint a'u gofynion yn eu gwefannau priodol. Fodd bynnag, mae'n debyg mai'r ffynhonnell bwysicaf, gan fod bron pob un o'r ffurfiau enwol cynnar a'u dyddiadau yn deillio o'r gronfa ddata hon, yw Archif Melville Richards. Mae angen cydnabyddiaeth benodol arnynt sydd wedi'i hysgrifennu isod.
