Cadair Berwyn North Top or Cadair Berwyn (Old Top) is a top of Cadair Berwyn in north east Wales. It is jointly the second highest summit in the Berwyn range along with Moel Sych.

The summit was often considered to be the highest summit in the Berwyns until the OS discovered a new top in between it and Moel Sych, which was 3m higher at 830m. This top, now known as Cadair Berwyn, is listed as Cadair Berwyn New Top on the Nuttall list.

The summit has a trig point. To the north-east is Cadair Bronwen, to the south-east is Tomle, Foel Wen and Mynydd Tarw.[1]
