    Fan Dringarth is the subsidiary northern summit of Fan Llia, a beautiful high ridge in the Fforest Fawr region of the Brecon Beacons. It's part of the larger Fan Fawr massif, which forms a great, green horseshoe above Ystradfellte Reservoir. At 2,024 feet (617 m), Fan Dringarth is a superb viewpoint to take in the full sweep of this gorgeous, glacially carved landscape.

      If you do the Fan Fawr Loop in the Forest Fawr area of the Brecon Beacons, you can bag yourself four Nuttalls. This is also a great little hike that takes in Craig Cerrig Gleisiad (629 m), Fan Frynych (629 m), Fan Llia (632 m), and Fan Fawr (734 m). They are local peaks that I have done many times, and Fan Dringarth is just north of Fan Llia with a prominence of 617m, a few metres short of Fan Llia. You can get nice views of Ystradfellte Reservoir from here.
