Highest Point in Roscommon

by Harry Goodman 5 Dec 2011 I crossed Seltannasaggart SE Slope in June 2008 when walking part of the Miner's Way over the mountain. We started at G 919 191 which is the start of a stoney track leading up to the top.The views to the E over Lough Allen to Slieve Anierin and the Fermanagh/Cavan mountains beyond are extensive but were marred by an assortment of rubbish to the side of the track . The top of the mountain, which supports a Wind Farm is a mess as it is subject to open cast mining. Indeed the the high point for Seltannasaggart 426m is difficult to locate and without the help of a GPS virtually impossible. Maybe by now it has been mined out of existence !! Not so Seltannasaggart SE Slope. It is positioned on the downward slope just off of the track on the left. Nothing as yet marks the spot as a County Top but given the ready supply of rocks/stones in the area County Top Summiteers may decide to build a small cairn to mark the highest point in Roscommon. Return by the same roue or if two cars are available it is a very rewarding walk to continue down along the Miners Way and if time allows climb the nearby Kilronan Mountain G 9010014900 before descending to the Arigna Mining Museum and Centre G 92400 14400.
