Summary
for Carrigadoon Hill :
Radio Central
Summary created by mcrtchly, thomas_g
18 May, 2014
N'Town (S412 279) where there is parking for 2-3 cars. Follow the track staying right at the first junction and left at all other junctions (except at A (S3988 2858) where you continue ahead rather than take the track on the left) and you'll arrive at the radio mast. Keep following the track for 100m, the summit is just above an old quarry on the left in the trees (not on the track as shown on MV summits). The ascent to summit follows the top edge of the quarry and care is needed especially at the last few metres is very close to the quarry edge. It is recommended that children and dogs are kept away from the quarry edge.Views are good if somewhat restricted.
