Waun Fach is the highest mountain in the Black Mountains in south-eastern Wales.
It is situated at the head of the Grwyne Fechan valley, above and to the west of the Grwyne Fawr reservoir [1]. It has an undistinguished (and almost indistinguishable [2]) rounded summit [3]. The nearby tops on the ridge, Pen Trumau and Pen y Gadair Fawr [4], although lower, are very much more recognisable.
