Fan Gyhirych, Mountain summit in Brecon Beacons National Park, Wales.

Fan Gyhirych reaches 725 meters in elevation and features a broad summit plateau composed of sandstone from the Brownstones Formation.

The western slopes of Fan Gyhirych were connected to John Christie's Brecon Forest Tramroad operations during the early nineteenth century.

The mountain forms part of the Fforest Fawr Geopark, established in 2005 to recognize the geological features of south Wales.

Visitors can access the summit via a vehicle track that ascends the south ridge before continuing along the eastern ridge.
