Thank you kevin carroll. If I can put a smile on that contrary face, the Matterhorn should be a cakewalk.

Fionn left a lot of furniture behind him.
Short Summary created by jackill, Dessie1  14 Jan 2012 If you are climbing this hill probably you will visit it from Seefin North Top .Park at the carpark at the start of The Black road R89306 20345 (Point A) (Point A) (ht333m), and follow the Black road through two gates. After passing through the second gate climb the bank and follow the wire fence west towards the summit of Seefin N Top.
From Seefin N Top cross the wire fence you have been following heading south through a rough boggy field.
Cross another wire fence and climb uphill and then across a short expanse of heathery bog to the summit Tor.
Fine views of the Galtys, the Comeraghs, and the Knockmealdowns for a small effort.
If you prefer you can head directly downhill to the carpark from the summit but be warned a carpet of knee high heather and ferns hides a multitude of ankle twisting opportunities.
#Also beware of the 4 foot high ditch with barbed wire that needs to be tackled if heading direct from the summit to the main car park area.
NW of the summit also has a large rocky outcrop which you will see to your right if descending from Seefin North summit.
Point A: R89306 20345

An easy start or finish to a bigger circuit
by Dessie1  13 Nov 2011 Climbed Seefin at the end of a longer circuit of the Galty's from Black Road.Approached from Seefin North summit across very high and energy sapping heather.Very cloudy day so views were limited.Headed direct for car park through 2 fields and then a 4 ft high ditch had to be crossed which scared the be-jesus out of a couple getting out of their car at the car park as I leapt the fence in one go with a hefty thump on landing!

Picture: Looking North East from Seefin		  
by jackill  9 Dec 2007 A short walk from the Black Road car park rambling over Seefin North will bring you fence hopping to Seefin. Seefin is a lone sentry guarding the the main entrance to the Galtys with a conglomerate castle but by the lack of footprints shows very few visitors stopping in. Views south to the Knockmealdowns, east to the Comeraghs and North to Galtymore ,Galtybeg and Greenane brooding in the cloud and the nearer Knockeenatoung.
