The Brecon Beacons (aka Brecons) in Wales were designated a National Park in 1957, with the high mountains of Pen y Fan and Cribyn to the stunning waterfalls of Blaen-y-glyn and reservoirs such as Talybont and Pontsticill. Thank you to the Brecon Beacons National Park Authority who provided information on the internal boundaries of the National Park.

Black Mountain
The Brecon Beacons consist of four individual mountain ranges, the names of which infuse almost everyone with confusion. Mountain Range 1 is the Black Mountain which is the moutain range on the west side of the Brecon Beacons National Park. It is fairly remote and the far west is largely unvisited.

Fforest Fawr
Mountain Range 2 is Fforest Fawr which is separated from the Black Mountain by the Afon Tawe. Fforest Fawr shouldn't be confused with the Fforest Fawr Geopark broadly comprises of the Black Mountain, Fforest Fawr and part of the Brecon Beacons.

Brecon Beacons
Mountain Range 3 is the Brecon Beacons, which happens to be the same name as the entire park. It is separated from Fforest Fawr by the Afon Tarrell to the north of the Storey Arms and the Afon Taff to the south of the Storey Arms. This mountain range includes Pen y Fan, the highest point in southern Britain and probably the most visited place in the National Park.

Black Mountains
Mountain Range 4 is called the Black Mountains, just one letter different from the Black Mountain, and marks the far east of the National Park. It is separated from the Brecon Beacons range by the River Usk.
