(Details)     COMMENTS for Tievummera Page 1 of 1 Expand pics.   by gerrym  22 Aug 2004 Tievummera is in the middle of the 5 km long skyline of the Sheefrys which remains over 700m. It has sharp northern sides falling down into the corrie containing Lough Brawn and big slopes curving down into Glenummera to the south. For a traverse east to west see Tievanbinnia, East Top and Tawny Rower for first parts of walk. Having climbed Tievnabinnia all the hard work is done as it is now no more than a gentle stroll SW along the northern slopes on very good ground, past a group of little loughs. This leaves all the time necessary to take in the fantastic views along the Sheefrys (pic is looking back to Teivnabinnia and across to Croagh Patrick) and to the north and south as walk. The views across the valley to Ben Creggan are particulary good here but nearly all the mountains on any map of the area are within eyesight. I wouldn't even try this walk without good weather as the views make it. Leave the slope edges to make for the visible trig point and an easy climb. There is the remains of an old fenceline going south and the remainder of the walk to clashcarne to the west. As continue the imposing southern slopes of Clashcarne come into full view, dropping down to Doo Lough with Mweelra behind and it is a short drop to the col with Clashcarne (see for next part of traverse) (Comment Rating 4.00) Your Score: Very useful <<  >>Average Expand pics. by milo  3 Jan 2005 attached two pics taken in this vicinity on New Years Eve'04.

I had read that this range is little frequented, and on the day I traversed it I didn't meet a single person in many hours of hiking. This photo shows the view west from near the summit of Tievummera. Barrclashcame is in the distance. Also visible are a sample of the cliffs and rugged landscape that are a constant companion on this high level walk.
