SEX ROCKS AND ROLLS

COMMENTS for Binn Bhriocáin NE Top 1 of 1
by mneary34  6 Jan 2005 Heading for the gap at Maumturk/Holy Well from Binn Bhriocain (Letterbreckaun) the ideal route is to head for the col close to Binn Bhriocain-NE Top. From Binn Bhriocain-NE Top the ridge descends in a north/north westerly direction heading for the gap. Clear navigation and route finding particularly in misty conditions is required as there is steep ground in the vicinity and a lack of defined features on the ground.

Gowlaun - The Northern Turks
by aburden  28 Feb 2011 Binn Bhriocain NE top can be seen as the 'pointy' top to the right of the photo. As you descend from Letterbreckaun to the Holy Well you - should - pass several ( freshly re-stacked ) cairns that lead you onto grassy bog and onto the small cairn the walker shown is arriving at. From here, a bearing of circa. NNE will get you to the Well in time for the steep onward climb to Maumturkmore.
