Tandragee (Tóin re Gaoith), the town in Co. Armagh, has the same meaning, as do several other places in Ireland, but it is difficult to know what they have in common.   Tonelagee is the third highest mountain in the Dublin/Wicklow area and the 33rd highest in Ireland. Tonelagee is the third highest point in county Wicklow.

by scannerman  1 Jul 2009 Climbed tonelagee on saturday 27th june, have climbed it several times before but the weather was superb for a change. Every other time i've been on this mountain i got a good drenching so i was pretty happy to get a warm, dry and panoramic view ontop. It was also windless which gave the summit a strange inviting calmness.
Started the climb from the little lay-by on the military road and hiked up to that glittering prize, lough ouler { for any interested, fit and adventurous game anglers this little gem contains some small wild brown trout } and from there to the summit along the southeast shoulder keeping to the left of the lake.Its a great trek even on an unsettled day and can be done in under three hours or in a whole day depending on your agenda and of course the season

Picture: Mist obscures the sunrise.		  
by etrino  6 Jan 2010 This is a quick, simple up-and-down walk from the car park at the Wicklow Gap. We did it early one morning in November, hoping to see the sunrise from the summit, but were thwarted by the mist. 3.8km total, 337m ascent.

Solo Success
by LizzieMurray  7 Oct 2012 Did this mountain 25th May 2012 as a solo adventure. It was a beautiful day must have been late 20s at the car park over at St Kevins Way. I made my way across the road until I could find a safe place to cross the ditch and made my way upwards. Was quite tough as I only started hiking in March of this yr. Although it was scorching hot the mountain was still very slippy and boggy in parts. Managed to fall 3 times on the way up and found some holes which I got my foot almost stuck in. Luckily nothing too adverse happened what with me being totally alone. Nonetheless it was well worth the falls and trials and tribulation as the view of Lough Ouler when I past the Trig point was breathtaking. So glad I got to see it :)

Picture: Tonelagee summit		  
by andreas  14 May 2007 This was the first time I climbed this mountain and I have to say the views are amazing. I started up the southern side of the mountain from the Wicklow gap. Weather was good but it got very windy at the top. Definitley worth the trip.

12th June 2010
by tigerbeat  12 Jun 2010 Climbed it today 12th June 2010 from The Wicklow Gap car park, 1 hour 45 up and back. There is a traill directly opposite the car park which you can follow to the top. Was concerned over heather after reading another report but absolutely no problem and even off the trail the heather isnt that bad. Weather was a bit cloudy, view was good but could see on a better day that it would be spectular! Will try it from Glenmacnaas Waterfall the next time.
