New Comment: Approach from SW
by Colin Murphy  12 Apr 2024
An alternative approach is from the SW, starting at G81484 47541 starM, where there is just about room to squeeze a car without blocking the track. Go along the farm lane and cross a gate, and follow the gently rising track for about 2.5km as it curves up and around the eastern side of Aghlateeve, affording views of a deep gully in the right and Glenade Lough to the south. The track finally peters out at G82907 48089 starN. This takes you to about 270m elevation and leaves you 1.5km from the summit. Unfortunately it gets tough after that, as 1km of the ascent is through deep, leg-wearying heather, some of the slope steep. Eventually you emerge on to the broad summit area, which is a mix of rocks and grass. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/507/comment/24177/
