Moel Penderyn, Hill summit in Rhondda Cynon Taf, United Kingdom.
Moel Penderyn rises to 371 meters above sea level, featuring a triangulation point at its peak within the Brecon Beacons National Park landscape.
The hill contains remnants of industrial tramways along its eastern flanks, reflecting the region's mining activities during the industrial development of Wales.
The name Moel Penderyn combines Welsh geographical terminology with local identity, demonstrating the continued use of traditional Welsh language in topographical features.
Multiple walking paths connect the summit to Penderyn village and Sgwd yr Eira waterfall, with clear markers guiding visitors through established routes.
The geological structure includes Carboniferous Limestone and Twrch Sandstone formations, shaped by the Neath Disturbance during the Caledonian Orogeny.
