by eoin  23 Apr 2004 Part of a route we completed from the Healy Pass on the way to Hungry Hill. The rocky summit provides great views of Hungry Hill to the west and the Cummeengeera Horseshoe to the north and the innner part of Bantry Bay. The summit itself is covered in rocky outcrops and a few points could be determined as the highest point spread over a 100m radius. Nevertheless it is one of the few dry spots on an otherwise very boggy and rock slab strewn ridge.

The photo below is of Hungry Hill taken from the summit of Derryclancy, just visible with the angular rock slabs in the right foreground.

Mount Gabriel: Does driving up count?

I'll be honest, it was 25degrees and the sun was beating down. Tipp and Waterford were on the field and I could hear the clash of the ash over the car radio. So I said feckit, and drove up. ...

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...
