Background
History
The area surrounding the hill is of archaeological interest and hosts some Bronze Age stone wall remains. Carn Llundain—along with Carn Ysgubor, located near the northern shore of Ramsey Island—during Middle Ages offered a useful landmark to seafaring pilgrims heading to St Davids.
Visiting
The summit of the hill can be reached with a short waymarked diversion from the trail round the island; no special hiking ability is required, but wearing proper outdoor clothing is advisable.
