Ben Gorm is the most southerly peak in the compact range of hills that form the Ben Gorm group. There are fine coums as well as long raking spurs that extend to the E. It lies close to Killary Harbour and the Mweelrea - besides these, there's lots to see from the summit incl. Devilsmother, the Sheffreys and Clare Island. The ridges are narrow in places with steep ground in abuncance along with a possible feeling of exposure to be experienced.

SE. Park at Aasleagh Falls (L89342 64412 A) where there is ample parking. Head up between a double row of fences until meeting the ridge line of the most S spur and head W keeping the coum on your right. There's wet ground lower down but it's better going once you attain the spur. Allow 2 hrs.+
If trying to complete an entire circuit note that it will involve a long trek through bog to the E of the main ridge as well as potentially difficult crossings of the Glendavock and Lugayeran rivers.

NE. Another starting point is at the E end of the N spur, around L88803 67234 B, heading S onto the spur, then W to Ben Creggan, over its S top and onto BG - about 2.5 hrs.
Parking further E at forest entrance you can head through the forest to approx. L93099 67094 C and walk BG's long eastern spur to the summit. Allow 2.5 hrs+

W. A third starting point is at Delphi Lodge (L84006 65000 D) heading straight and v steeply for the summit - approx. 1 hr.

Notable tracks incl. track/3699 , track/3073 [car split] and the lengthy track/2735. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/110/comment/4870/
