Slievenagower Hill Sliabh na nGabhar A name in Irish
(Ir. Sliabh na nGabhar [TCCD], 'mountain of the goats') Kerry County In Carn List

Height: 484m OS 1:50k Mapsheet: 70 Grid Reference: Q53948 07227 This summit has been logged as climbed by 18 members
I have climbed this summit: NO (You need to be a logged-in member to change this.)

Longitude: -10.136821, Latitude: 52.197944 Prominence: 120m,   Isolation: 0.6km
ITM: 453930 607281,   GPS IDs, 6 char: Slbhnn, 10 char: SlbhnnGbhr

The Irish form is given as Slí na gCorr on the OS Discovery map. However, this is clearly not the name of a mountain. It either refers to a track or is perhaps a corruption of Sliabh na nGabhar.   Sliabh na nGabhar is the 504th highest summit in Ireland.

Adrian Hendroff's Best View in Dingle
by ciarraioch  16 May 2012 Quite a brave statement made by Adrian Hendroff in his recent and surpassingly excellent walker's guide 'The Dingle, Iveragh & Beara Peninsulas'. Does it live up to the billing? Judge for yourself on the attached photo.
We took in Sliabh na nGabhar as a circuit from Beenbo and thence to Sliabh na Leice and An Cnapán Mór, as detailed in the aforementioned guide. The entire circuit took us seven and a half hours including stops in good conditions.

by three5four0  1 Oct 2009 See Cnoc na Banoige for the previous part of this walk.

The summit of Slievenagower is surprisingly good in the views & shapely department, with steep cories scooped out on 2 sides. We continued east, descending to the track and following it to just below the summit of Beenbo, leaving the track as it turned left down Beenbos' north ridge, & climbing the short distance to the summit of Beenbo.

See Beenbo for Continuation.
