Lliwedd Bach is a top of Y Lliwedd in the Snowdonia National Park, North Wales. It is the last "top" on the main ridge of Y Lliwedd, the other being Y Lliwedd East Peak. A broad ridge at around 580m carries on northwards until the subsidiary summit of Gallt y Wenallt is reached.

The summit is unmarked and offers good views of Y Lliwedd's cliffs, Yr Wyddfa and Crib Goch.[1]
