Mountain Name Height OS Map/Grid Reference
Tal y Fan 610m 2001ft 115/SH729727
The northern most peak - barely 2000' - fairly isolated and not often climbed. Most people are likely to pass by on the roman road running northwest ? southeast Tal y Fan and Carnedd y Ddelw. The stone age standing stones are of interest
Carnedd y Ddelw 688m 2257ft 115/SH708705
Across the Roman road, and the start of the main ridge in the northern Carneddeau.
Drum 770m 2526ft 115/SH708696
The next peak along the ridge
Pen y Castell 623m 2044ft 115/SH722689
Off to the east of Drum, down to a cwm then up again. Overlooks Iron Age hill fort ruins at Ffrith - y - Bont.
Llwytmor 849m 2785ft 115/SH689692
Off to the west of Drum, and overlooking the Aber Falls (best seen by ascending from the Aber falls).
Foel-fras 942m 3091ft 115/SH696682
Back on the main ridge south of Drum. One of the ?Welsh 3000ft? mountains - specifically the last one in the "Welsh 3000s" race!
Bera Mawr 794m 2605ft 115/SH675683
Off the main ridge north West of Garnedd Uchaf - meaning Big Haystack. Well off the beaten track, and a serious scramble to the summit.
Bera Bach 807m 2648ft 115/SH672678
Bera Mawr's little brother - means "Little Haystack". Very similar to big brother.
Drosgl 758m 2487ft 115/SH664680
Immediately east of Bera Bach, and equally isolated.
Gyrn Wigau 643 2110ft 115/SH654675
Even further east that the two Bera's - overlooking Bethesda
