Geokaun: Drive time

Summit Comment TommyV 3 days ago
Nothing to add on the directions as its very straight forward. The weather turned just as we drove to the summit so we didn't even get to do the short looped walk.

Inishbofin summit
by Wilderness  6 Aug 2017
The summit is in the middle of the island and is easy to access. There is a trail leading to the top on the south and east sides but you can also make your own way up. I got to the top by walking ,off trail, from the west side; it was a little marshy in places! There is also another nice hill worth climbing located on the west end of the island: L513 655 A. It must be roughly the same height as Middlequarter Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/2211/comment/19629/
