Rhos Fawr or Great Rhos is a mountain summit in Mid Wales, and is the highest point on the Radnor Forest rock dome being 660 m or 2170 ft in height. The local rocks are sedimentary shales and mudstones with some Silurian limestone.

The summit is located on a broad heathery plateau, which is separated from Black Mixen: the eastern plateau summit, by the cwm of Harvey Dingle. To the west is Drygarn Fawr and Gorllwyn, to the north Plynlimon, to the east Black Mixen at 650 m or 2133 feet in height, and to the south the Black Mountains.[1]

There is a prominent trig point at the summit, and a very useful landmark for walkers on the broad and featureless summit plateau.
