In Days Gone you must find 12 Anarchist Cairn Locations for the Go Kick Rocks trophy. Once you found a rock cairn, press the Square-Button to kick it over. There are far more than 12 of them in the game but they give no reward except for the trophy. For the purpose of this guide we’ll look at only the 12 Cairns for the trophy. Just know there are a lot more of them (probably around 40-50 in total).
None of them are missable. You can still find them after the story in free-roam. During the story there are some temporary points of no return but after the story the whole map opens up again and all areas can be revisited.
The Anarchist Cairns are mostly found at the top of cliffs overlooking a valley below them or near bodies of water (rivers, lakes).
You can keep track of how many you found under Storylines > Trophies > Go Kick Rocks.
Belknap Region Cairns
Anarchist Cairn #1 – At a lake
Anarchist Cairn #2 – Requires a bike jump. You’ll need the Nitrous upgrade to jump far enough across a cliff. On the other side you find this cairn.
Anarchist Cairn #3 – On top of a cliff by the side of the road.
Anarchist Cairn #4 – Under a bridge, next to river.
Anarchist Cairn #5 – On top of a mountain.
Anarchist Cairn #6 – Under a rock arch.
Anarchist Cairn #7 – At a small cliff.
Lost Lake Region Cairns
Anarchist Cairn #8 – On top of a cliff.
Anarchist Cairn #9 – Near a river.
Anarchist Cairn #10 – At the bottom of a waterfall.
Anarchist Cairn #11 – At a small cliff.
Anarchist Cairn #12 – At a big lake.
After the 12th Rock Cairn has been destroyed you’ll unlock the Go Kick Rocks trophy.

There is a mission late in the game that requires you to go into a mine. I found I think three or four cairns in there. Definitely counts towards the achievement as I track it in the trophy section menu.

I made that mission couple of minutes ago and yes, there is atleast four cairns. Or maybe more….
LadyCobra says
I found a total of 6… but you must either kill the hoard or successfully run out of the mine. If you decide to skip, the game only grants you the 3-4 you may find on the easiest pathway (no alcove finds). Good luck – I ran like crazy!!
Adam says
I did all 12 and the trophy didn’t pop for me. I even did 2 extra and nothing. Has this happened to anyone else?
Michael says
There are a few cairns at the crater map. Ones at a Nero site when you have to jump, from main land onto an little island onto other part of land.
