Fan Brycheiniog is a mountain in the Brecon Beacons National Park in South Wales.
It is the highest peak [1] in the western Black Mountain region of the park. The Beacons Way, a waymarked long distance footpath forks near the mountain, with one option passing over the summit and along the long ridge [2], and the other option offering a lowland route [3] passing beside the lake Llyn y Fan Fawr [4] to the east of the summit. This path leads to the mountain from Llanddeusant in the north-west and Glyntawe in the south-east.
In winter the mountain is spectacular [5], [6] & [7] and in summer provides great views [8] & [9].
