Antakščių II Hill Fort is located in Molėtų rural district, near Antakščiai village, Alanta parish. It is an archaeological site dating back to the first half of the 1st millennium AD. The hill, extending south towards the hillside, is 50x35 meters in size and 10-14 meters high. Remnants of a ditch and a moat can be found at three to five meters below the surface of the hill. The site was significantly restored in the 20th century. Currently, the hill is covered with forest, with a part of it being cleared. A settlement from the early Iron Age was discovered near the hill, with broken and whole pottery found on the site.
