Llanuwchllyn is a village in Gwynedd, north Wales, near the southern end of Bala Lake (Llyn Tegid). Its population in the 2001 census was 834[1], of which approximately 81% were Welsh-speaking.[2]

Llanuwchllyn is the headquarters of the narrow gauge Bala Lake Railway, centred on the former Great Western Railway station on the standard-gauge line from Ruabon to Barmouth. It was the birthplace of Welsh language author and educationalist Owen Morgan Edwards.
