Chwarel y Fan

Chwarel y Fan is a peak in the Black Mountains in south-eastern Wales.

It is the highest rise on the long ridge which extends southeastwards from Rhos Dirion.

The ridge continues southeastwards to the lesser summit of Bal-Mawr whose top is adorned by a trig point at 607 metres (1,991 ft) above sea level.

About one km (0.62 mi) southeast along the ridge is the lesser top of Bal-Bach at a height of just over 520 metres (1,710 ft).

On the other sides of the valleys: to the west is Pen Twyn Mawr and to the east is Black Mountain.
