Pumlumon Fawr, Mountain summit in Ceredigion, Wales.
Pumlumon Fawr rises to 752 meters, marking the highest point in the Cambrian Mountains between Snowdonia and the Brecon Beacons national parks.
The mountain witnessed the Battle of Mynydd Hyddgen in 1401 during the Welsh revolt against English rule under the leadership of Owain Glyndŵr.
The name translates from Welsh as 'Five Mountains', reflecting the physical landscape that includes six distinct summits in the mountain range.
Multiple hiking trails lead to the summit, with the northern slopes containing the sources of two major British rivers: the Severn and Wye.
The mountain area contains Llyn Llygad Rheidol, a cirque lake formed by glacial processes, surrounded by cliffs and distinctive ridge formations.
