The Carnedd y Filiast group
2 other listed summits sit in the same prominence group, with Carnedd y Filiast as the independent hill at its head.
| Summit | Height | Drop |
|---|---|---|
| Waun Garnedd-y-Filiast | 651 m | 15 m |
| Carnedd Llechwedd-llyfn | 644 m | 26 m |
Grouping is by prominence alone: a summit belongs to the nearest higher Marilyn it connects to without a deeper intervening col. Over a large massif that can gather hills no one would walk in a single day, and which few would describe as parts of the same mountain — it is a measure of independence, not a suggested route.
