Not much at this cairn to justify the steep climb up to it.

The V-shaped forecourt is still visible but the sidestones of the chamber have fallen inwards.

For the hardy, park in Clachan of Glendaruel then follow the N bank of the stream which passes the cairn. The forest section of this had been indicated on my visit by flourescent orange markers.
