Clifftop Bayern (Japanese: 崖上のバイエルン, Gaijō no Baierun) is a Unique Monster in Xenoblade Chronicles. It is a member of the Antol family, and can be found at level 32 at the summit of Daksha Shrine on Bionis' Leg, where the Giants' Mirror is also found. It will not appear until the party approaches the eastern edge of the shrine, at which point it will emerge and immediately attack.
It is difficult to get a battle start affinity because the Bayern does not emerge until the party is within its detection range. However, it can be done by retreating far enough to exit the battle and then quickly returning to the shrine while the Bayern is still in the open.

Trivia[]
- During the Affinity Scene at the Waterlogged Daksha Shrine in Xenoblade Chronicles 3: Future Redeemed, Shulk tells Matthew and Nikol about the time he and his friends encountered Clifftop Bayern, remarking that the way it crawled up from under the cliff left him "slightly traumatized." The Waterlogged Daksha Shrine also is the location of a Unique Monster that ambushes the party from behind, being Sworn Protector Hector.
