Meall Cheo: Flat top, steep side.

Summit Comment simon3 5 hours ago
The summit isn't a dramatic place which is unsurprising given the translation of its name "foggy lump". But the east side is steep and only walkable with extreme difficulty, if at all. Here, the s...

Taking the N59 from Leenaun you will see a small road to the east at 827 613. Drive along this for about 600m, crossing the Western Way, and entering a forest. 100m further there is a large entran...

The notch centre right on Foher is the Salroc Pass.

Knocknagree East Top: Fine top with good access mostly on trail

Summit Summary Collaborative entry Last edit by: Colin Murphy 4 days ago
Usually done in conjunction with other tops such as Knocknagree itself, but this rather remote top may be done in isolation from, for example, the south. Parking for several cars to be had on...

Mount Gabriel: Simple and stunning

Masts among the trees
Short Summary created by thomas_g  18 Jan 2014
Corbally Hill is accessible from the east or the north, with the entrance at S50556 24614 starA (plenty of parking) being the longest route. From this location, follow the forest track around to S49761 25434 starB where a right turn, followed by another right will bring you to the top. Occasional glimpses of the Comeraghs and Slievenamon can be got through the trees.
Upon reaching the top the highest ground seems to be behind the large mast enclosure, a clamber through waist high brambles awaits. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/1162/comment/15406/
 
Phytophthora ramorum
by thomas_g  18 Jan 2014
Please be aware that Corbally hill seems to be currently suffering from Phytophthora ramorum (aka sudden oak death), this is a very invasive tree disease for which there is no cure.
There is a sign at the entrances, but in short, stick to the paths, don't bring any foliage in or out of the wood and wash and disinfect your footwear before your next walk. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/1162/comment/15792/
