The name translates as The Black Mountain.
At times the shadows from the ridge can be quite oppresive.
Not too many people make it over from the more popular central and easterly areas of the Brecon Beacons National Park.
It has two trapped glacial lakes (ancient, bottomless and all that, as well as Iron Age votive finds).
The southern ridge overlooks the Neolithic Trade route of the Tawe Valley (where Cerrig Duon is).
On the northern slopes are some out of the way stone circles.
