Simon said " you'll be glad of the gps and pazapas' excellent map" and by the hokey was he right! The pull up , around and over icy Arts lough was clear but after that I was in the clouds.Arriving at the summit of Cloghernagh I very nearly turned around but decided to press on to the Lug(last of my 3000 footers, yahoo!). Then, Miracle!, the clouds began to break and the rest of my first foray in Wicklow was completed in bright sunshine surrounded by seas of cloud which occasionaly broke over me.Even in fog Wicklows mountains are magnificent highlands. The day ends with two questions however, where will I go on my next visit and did Wicklore make it to Connemara?

There is a lovely walk along the top of Corrigasleggaun overlooking Kelly's Lough. This is a beautiful area with Carrawaystick nearby and Cloghernagh on the other side of a narrow valley. The lake is suspended on the sides of Corrigasleggaun in magnificent surroundings. It is possible to descend to the lake at it's eastern end and reach the Carrawaystick Brook. I followed the Carrawaystick Brook recently to the Zig Zags but was denied access to cross a farmyard near the Carrawaystick waterfall. However I was permitted to follow the outside of a stone wall to reach the road back to Baravore. An alternative would be to cross the Carrawaystick Brook at the eastern end of Kelly's Lough and ascent Cloghernagh and descend by Art's Lough. See under Cloghernagh for route. This alternative gives lovely views of two of Wicklows beautiful hidden lakes.

Expand pics. by csd  8 Mar 2009 Nothing much to say about Corrigasleggaun, except it makes a useful waypoint on a Aughavanna - Slievemaan - Lugnaquilla - Aughavanna horseshoe. Small cairn at the summit with nice views of Lug's South Prison. Don't forget to turn right on the way down from Lugnaquilla or you'll end up on Cloghernagh - easy to miss in the fog.

(Comment Rating 2.75) Your Score: Very useful <<  >>Average Picture: In memoriam Expand pics. by padodes  8 Oct 2007 At the 'Carraway Stick Mountain' end of Corrigasleggaun - to be precise T063 904 (Point A) - a rusted cross with an illegible inscription has stood for several years over a heap of tortured metal. Like many, I suppose, I couldn't remember what tragedy it referred to. I noticed this weekend, however, that the cross has been repainted and a new inscription affixed to it. It reads: "In loving memory of Frank Maher and John Lonergan who died in a plane crash near this spot on 2nd February 1992". I found a reference to the accident in the Irish Times of 5/2/1992. On page 3, it gives an account of the ill-fated flight of the Cessna that ended on this hillside and of the difficulties encountered in recovering the bodies. In the background of the photo can be seen the top of Clohernagh, on the far side of the valley.
