A silent giant, Waun Fach is the highest point in South Wales' Black Mountains. Its gradual slopes and the flat nature of its summit mean that it can hardly be called a peak. It's nevertheless an attractive objective due to its great height and sense of remoteness. Three ridges converge on its summit, making it one of the true hubs of the range.

Standing at 811 metres (2,661 ft), Waun Fach is the highest mountain in the Black Mountains. It is one of the three Marilyns over 600 metres (1,969 ft) that make up the range. To the north Rhos Fawr and the Radnor Forest can be seen. It has an undistinguished rounded summit. The nearby tops of Pen Trumau and Pen y Gadair Fawr, although lower, are very much more recognisable. It is a UK-listed Nuttall.
