Tandragee (Tóin re Gaoith), the town in Co.

Tonelagee is the third highest point in county Wicklow.

Picture: Tonelagee & The Wicklow Gap		  
Handy walk from the Wicklow Gap
by paulocon  30 Sep 2010 A straightforward climb from the Wicklow Gap. There is a boggy trail up the mountain and once through the heather, the going becomes easy. The summit is marked with a trig pillar and is pretty uninspiring but it is very worthwhile taking a walk over towards Stoney Top. A standing stone with a cross carved into it provides a great viewing point down onto the serene Lough Ouler.

We had planned a crossing to Mullaghcleevaun but the recent heavy rain coupled with some accounts of walkers going waist-high into the boggy ground discouraged us so we made our way back to a packed and noisy Wicklow Gap.

To get a full appreciation of the massive bulk of Tonelagee, take a walk up the meandering road which leads from the gap to the top of Turlough Hill.

Picture: Fair Mountain from West side of Tonelagee		  
by MichaelJ  8 Feb 2008 Saturday 02/02/08. Had originally planned to do the Carrigshouk, Mullaghcleevaun Tonelagee circuit but when we got to the Wicklow Gap at about 11 am the clouds were perching fairly close to Tonelagee, so decided to do a quick up and down from the Gap. Crunching up on a nIce newly laid carpet of snow, we had the place to ourselves apart from a few deer. Made it up to the top in just over an hour - by this time the temperature had dropped a wee bit and as the wind whipped up I realised why its is called Tonelagee!. Managed to find a bit of shelter on the east side where we had the soup and sambos - has to be the highlight of any climb! During a brief whiteout we came across this woman without map or compass asking for directions to Laragh - jeez! - who lets these people out? Felt guilty for not insisting she come down with us - thankfully saw her on the road to Laragh later. What do you do in a case like that?
