From the Wikipedia article

Mynydd Myddfai is a hill 4.5 miles southeast of Llandovery in the county of Carmarthenshire, southwest Wales. It lies within the Brecon Beacons National Park and Fforest Fawr Geopark. The hill is in the form of a broad ridge aligned southwest to northeast with three or four distinct tops separated by cols. The northwest side drops steeply away towards the village of Myddfai whilst the other side is a more shallow slope down towards Glasfynydd Forest which encircles Usk Reservoir. The plateau surface of the hill rises to a height of 440m at OS grid ref SN 806297 where a trig point has been erected.

Background

Visiting

The hill is designated as open country and so freely accessible to walkers. A bridleway runs across it from the dam of the Usk Reservoir northwest to Cwm yr Olchfa and another runs southeast from this one to meet a minor public road at the west end of the hill.
