Crug Mawr, Hill summit in Brecon Beacons National Park, Wales.
Crug Mawr rises to 550 meters above sea level, featuring four distinct ridges that extend toward northwest, east, southeast, and southwest directions from its peak.
The summit marks a geographical point that has served as a reference for navigation through the centuries with its established triangulation station.
This peak forms part of the Black Mountains range, where traditional Welsh sheep farming practices continue on the grassy slopes throughout the seasons.
The Beacons Way walking trail crosses the slopes of Crug Mawr between Partrishow and Llanbedr, providing direct access routes for mountain hikers.
From the summit, visitors can observe both the Grwyne Fawr and Grwyne Fechan valleys, while the southwestern ridge connects to Blaen-yr-henbant peak.
