Poor relation amongst peers
Short Summary created by march-fixer  14 Jun 2012 Situated as an elbow in the south eastern spur of Tonelagee, it is an excellent point on the route down from Tonelagee to Laragh. There are wonderful views out north-east to Scarr, south-east to Brockagh SE Top and west to Camaderry. Glendalough is hidden away by the Camaderry ridge but there are wonderful views north-east to Wicklow Gap and Lough Nahanagan.

Seldom summited directly, it is more often reached as part of a walk down from Tonelagee or up from Brockagh SE Top, its smaller sibling. It can be incorporated as part of several linear or circuit walks in the area.

There is a nice little cairn at the summit T10858 99057 (Point A) with good shelter for a couple of persons. While the track up from Brockagh SE Top is well defined, the track up to Tonelagee is not. There is a track nearby to the north T111 992 (Point B) which will lead you down to a forest track and back to Laragh. See the summary details for Brockagh SE Top for information on parking and track start.
Point A: T10858 99057 Point B: T111 992
