Classifications and ratings are the local authority's own and can be coarse — this is a lead, not a guarantee of opening hours or that food is served to non-residents. Follow a name through to the official rating page to check, and confirm before you rely on it.

The Carnedd y Filiast group
7 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 |
| Foel-boeth | 596 m | 41 m |
| Graig Ddu | 537 m | 69 m |
| Craig yr Hafod | 534 m | 65 m |
| Garn Prys | 533 m | 104 m |
| Moel y Gydros | 522 m | 146 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.
