by simon3  5 Apr 2006 This picture shows the summit taken from near the top of Carran.

Off the left shoulder is a view of the Coomagearlahy wind turbines, unfinished at the time.

Beyond them and dimly through the haze on the skyline, two similar rounded peaks - The Paps.

A steep climb up a series of steps (ouch) from the Hare's Gap to the summit of Slievenaglogh rewards the climber with incredible views over Slieve Bearnagh, Slieve Meelmore and Ben Crom Reservoir....

Suggestion for West Cork walk

Conor74, I'd suggest that you could climb Shehy Mor (and combine it with Djouce and Doughill mountains for a longer walk). The best access for climbing Shehy Mor is from the unclassified road whic...
