Bradesių piliakalnis, also known as Tilteliomiškis, is a hillfort and settlement located in the Rokiškis district, west of the village of Bradesiai. It is accessible from the Zarasai - Bradesiai - Obeliai road, situated about 100 meters to the left of the turn towards the village.
The fortification is situated on a height in the Kriaunų eldership, about 100 meters north of the shore of Lake Sartas. The oval courtyard measures 26x18 meters, with a center that rises 1 meter. The slopes are natural - the northern slope is a nuolaidus reaching 1.5 meters high, while other sides are statūs reaching 13-14 meters high.
The hillfort is covered with pines and was designated as a state-protected monument in 2005. In 1949 and 1972, the Institute of History surveyed the site, noting that no cultural layers or traces of a settlement were found.
