Picture: Approaching Commedagh from Donard

Proud second in command

Short Summary created by Harry Goodman, wicklore 23 Jul 2012 Commedagh is the second highest mountain in the Mournes. One access route to Commedagh is the same as for Donard. At just 83 metres lower than its bigger neighbour, Commedagh packs a powerful punch in terms of effort, views and scenery. The Mourne Wall can be used as a handrail if approaching from either the east or the west. From Donard Park J375306 (Point A) follow the forest track upwards SW through Donard Wood. On exiting the forest a good path continues up the valley to gain the col between Donard and Commedagh J350279 (Point B). Here you will find the mighty Mourne Wall plying its trade. Turn right and follow the Wall uphill to reach a stone tower J345286 (Point C). Turn right and cross the plateau NE for a few hundred metres to the summit cairn (about 2 ½ hours from car park to summit.) Commedagh can also be reached from the W by following the Mourne Wall from the Hare's Gap via Slievenaglogh and Slieve Corragh. Beware of steep ground and cliffs to the NE and W of the summit. If approaching from the W stick close to the Mourne Wall to avoid cliffs to the north. A third approach is by way of Shanslieve. Once up from Donard Park to the point just before the track leaves the forest turn right and follow the wall through the trees for about 200m to a forest ride on the left. Follow this up to a stile. Once out on open ground continue up W over Slievenamaddy and then SW to Shan Slieve before following the sharp edge of Commedagh up around the Pot of Pulgarve to gain the summit cairn.

Point A: J375 306

Point B: J350 279

Point C: J345 286
