Foel Drygarn Cairns

These three hilltop cairns form part of a late Bronze Age hillfort called Foel Drygarn. At first glance they appear to be heaps of random stones, but a close inspection reveals carefully constructed mounds within which are circular depressions.

These massive monuments which reach about 3 metres in height and which give the fort its name (Foel Trigarn translates as ‘Hill of the Three Cairns’).

It can be accessed via a footpath from the Crymych to Mynachlogddu road, where there is a lay-by for parking.
