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

An easy to miss access point
Short Summary created by jackill  30 Jul 2012 Turn off the R513 at Annaslinga crossroads and immediately take the first left .At the next junction R802 181 (Point A) go left and after 50-100 meters look out for a small rough track on your right bounded by a bungalow on one side and a farmhouse and farmyard on the other. Be aware, this is very easily missed. There is ample parking on left just up this track. Walk through the barrier and just follow the forest path up to a group of masts. Hop a gate into farmland just past the masts and go right to reach the summit.
Point A: R802 181

have you got 20 minutes?
by sbender  11 Feb 2011 A very un-eventfull hill but has nice views to all the surrounding mountains. You are going to need Both OSI 73 and 74 as the hill is just located on the edges of both maps. Take the road from Mitchelstown to Galbally (R513). Just after the turn for Kilmallock (R517) take the small road to the left, follow this untill point R802181 (OSI 74). Take a left up a small bohereen at this point (just before a turquoise coloured bungalow) be aware, this is very easily missed. There is ample parking on left just up this bohereen. Walk through the barrier and just follow the forest path up to a group of masts. The summit is a small bit further east (point 355 on OSI 73). the walk to the summit is a leisurely 20 minute stroll.

Who needs 20 minutes?
by Onzy  28 Mar 2013 Having an hour to spare en route to a meeting in Cork, I had intended to follow SBender's route up this hill. Driving up the narrow boreen, wondering where he had found to leave the car, before realising it I had driven straight through an open barrier - I fought with the conscience for a second or two, but.kept going nonetheless! Before the conscience started to gain the upper hand, I was at the mast compound. The photo shows the car, the mast compound and, through the bushes, the trig - 5 minutes there and back!
