The Carneddau (lit. "the cairns"; Carneddau is a Welsh plural form, and is sometimes anglicised to Carnedds) are a group of mountains in Snowdonia, Wales. They include the largest contiguous areas of high ground (over 2,500 or 3,000 feet (910 m) high) in Wales and England, as well as six or seven of the highest peaks in the country—the Fourteen Peaks. The range also encloses a number of lakes such as Llyn Cowlyd and Llyn Eigiau, and the Aber Falls waterfalls. It is delimited by the Irish Sea to the north, the Conwy valley to the east, and by the A5 road from Betws-y-Coed to Bethesda to the south and west. The area covers nearly 200 square kilometres, about 10% of the area of Snowdonia.
I was leader for today, as David Barnard supervised me as I lead a group of 10 primary school children on a mountain day, this was such a useful experience because working with year 5-6 their energy levels are so varied some with wanting to walk for ever and some get annouyed walking to the bus, therefore there was lots of differnt leadership techniques used for example putting the slowest person in front and then nobody is allowed to over take them, I took the group from Aber falls car park up Foel Dduarth then to Foel-ganol and down the side of Foel-ganol and back the mini bus.
