Garnedd Uchaf is a summit of the Carneddau range in Snowdonia, Wales, and included in the Welsh 3000s.

It lies between Foel Fras and Foel Grach, but is not always included in the Welsh 3000s, as its summit rises only slightly above the ridge. Its slopes, like all those in the northern Carneddau, are largely grassy, although they are steep.
