COMMENTS for Annagh Hill 1 of 1
Rewarding views from this North Wexford ridge.
Short Summary created by simon3  26 May 2010 There are fine views of this summit particularly towards the coast around Gorey. One handy way up Annagh Hill is from the NE from near Clonroe Cross Roads at around T11056875 (Point A), which is steep or starting on tracks from the SW at T07940 66897 (Point B).
The summit is a SW to NE ridge, with the NW side of it forested as of 2010 being felled.
The indistinguished summit itself has a low grass covered mound, similar to the collapsed tombs found on others.
It is possible to combine a walk from the SW of Annagh hill through the Clonroe Cross Roads mentioned above through an entrance into the forest roads that go to Croughan Kinsella to form a magnificent linear walk eventually ending at Ballycoog village.
Note that sometimes access is not possible in the shooting months (Sept through Feb)
Point A: T1105 6875 Point B: T07940 66897

Picture: Croghan viewed from the summit of Annagh Hill
by csd  27 Apr 2008 It doesn't seem possible to gain access to Annagh Hill from the east: numerous houses and their large gardens block your way. Instead, I tried an approach from the southwest. Parking at the start of the forest track at T07940 66897 (where there's plenty of space), I followed the track to the edge of the forest. It was then a simple matter of handrailing the forest all the way to the summit. The steep slopes give it an almost ridge-like aspect.
I was pleasantly surprised by the views from the top on what was a beautiful day. The whole sweep from Lug to the north to Mount Leinster in the south was visible: not bad for a hill of only 454 metres. Recommended.

Annagh parade.
by simon3  26 May 2010 What do you do on a Sunday if you've bought one of those ridiculous urban tractors? Why drive in convoys around places like the Coillte lands on Annagh Hill, of course. Saves you the indignity of having to use spray on dirt (yes there really is such a thing for SUVs).
Certainly a bit disconcerting and unexpected on the summit but not causing damage outside the forest.

4X4, two ot them.

Picture: Gate to the slope.		  
Gate between slope and ridge.
by simon3  5 Apr 2010 One handy way up Annagh Hill is from the NE from near Clonroe Cross Roads at around T11056875 where there is a modern dilapidated gate and boggy track leading to a small flattened space. This is all in sight of the steepish but very climbable northern side of the hill with its forest boundary running towards the SW. As of 2010 the trees certainly on the lower slopes of Annagh Hill are being harvested so the Harlequin Annagh will become the Piebald Annagh. This route on Annagh is useful if you are planning to walk Annagh and then Croghan Kinsella since it neatly connects the two.
After climbing the slope you will cross a wall and come to a fairly flattish ridge with views to the coast including Tara Hill and views, where the trees aren't too high, towards the southern Wicklows such as Lugnaquiilia.

The old gate in the wall at the top of the northern slope, shown below, hints of a history of the land and serves to divide the flattish ridge from the steepness down towards the local area, Ballythomas.
