Looking south, the boats are near the bit you jump onto rocks to get onto Mingulay. Hecla Point cairn is half way up the slope to the south as well.

Walking north from Hecla Point you return to path that heads to the small village on Mingulay. Situated in front of the schoolhouse, looking east to the mainland, sits the Aneir cairn.
Once again the islanders have treated the site with respect and left it alone. It still stands at just over 5m wide / 0.8m tall and is surrounded by short grass.
A little look round the village, school and beach then it would be time for a walk over to the west side of the island.
