In Irish the peak was sometimes called Céidín Uí Mháil in full, a name derived from the population group who also gave their name to the Glen of Imaal.

(Details)     COMMENTS for Keadeen Mountain Page 1 2 3 Next page >> Expand pics.   by csd  19 Oct 2003 Because of Keadeen's somewhat isolated position at the eastern edge of the Wicklow mountains there are some great views from the top. Here's Balineddan, Slievemaan and Lugnaquilla (in cloud as usual) viewed from Keadeen. We came up the western side from Ballinabarry Gap (S985 895 (Point A)) handrailing the forest at first and then following the heavily eroded track the rest of the way to the summit. Sadly the track has been badly cut up by scramblers/quad bikes.

(Comment Rating 4.20) Your Score: Very useful <<  >>Average Expand pics.   by GWPR  7 Apr 2003 From Blessington continue on the n81 to turn left for Donard. In Donard go left and next right to pass the Youth Hostel on the left. Take next right to Knockarrigan. Now follow signs for Dwyer/McAllister Cottage. Park in small Car Park opposite cottage. Leave Car Park and follow road to right to reach forest track on left. Follow forest track and at first bend enter wood to follow edge of wood. Where the wood ends on your right there is a track all the way to the summit. The summit has a scattered cairn and a trig point. The walls circling the Brusselstown Ring , the biggest ringfort in Ireland , can be seen to the NW. It was constructed in the Iron Age to guard the entrance to the rich farmland of the Glen of Imaal. To the East Lugnacoille and it’s neighbours are impressive. From the summit head south following a fence and later a stone wall to reach Carrig which has a small cairn. The view back to Keadeen is beautiful. On my way back I saw this beautiful butterfly!

Part of the cairn has been built up into a wall, which provides useful shelter against the wind.

That makes it all the better for the rest of us who know what fantastic views you can get once at the top, and you have it all to yourself! (Comment Rating 3.90) Your Score: Very useful <<  >>Average by Pádraig  2 Mar 2004 Climbed Keadeen on 27 February 2004. Great steep little climb and a smashing view of Lug from the summit. Nice with a bit of snow thrown in for good measure! Ideal way to pass a few hours or to build up stamina for bigger ventures.
