Hynestia Prime, also known as simply Hynestia, was a cold tundra planet located in the galaxy's Colonies region that was orbited by a pair of moons. Due to its frigid climate, only the area around the equator was habitable to its human population. Underground, the planet had extensive systems of caves and hot springs.

Hynestia was ruled by the Hynestian royal family. During the High Republic Era, a Jedi temple outpost was situated on Hynestia, manned by Jedi Master Stellan Gios.
