Gorllwyn, Mountain summit in Llanwrthwl, Wales.

The grassy peak of Gorllwyn rises to 613 meters above sea level, featuring a shelter cairn and trig point at its highest elevation point.

Throughout centuries, Gorllwyn has served as a natural boundary marker between the communities of Llanwrthwl and Llanafanfawr in the Welsh landscape.

The mountain belongs to the Cambrian Mountains range, holding classification as both a Hewitt and Nuttall in British mountain categorization systems.

Visitors can access the summit using the OS Landranger 147 map reference SN862584, with several walking paths leading through the surrounding peat bog terrain.

The summit functions as a subsidiary peak to Drygarn Fawr, separated by the distinct pass of Bwlch y Ddau Faen in this remote moorland plateau.
