Once found it does have some good views, but the cairn itself is mostly flattened and robbed. Worth a detour if you are going up to the Black mountain and the lakes. There is car parking to the East about 1klm away. Several places are used by walkers heading up to the Fans. the most convenient for this cairn is at SN85562-22338. this is the top of the hill at Bwllch y Cerrig Duon, next to a Barrow. From there head due West towards the northern peak of Fan Foel. The cairn is amongst some islands of reeds.
