Ascended from R572. the 1st 100mts from the road are a bit rough, but after that I was able to use the some of the many rocky ramps that abound on this hill to provide me with an interesting and dry ascent of the hill. great views from the top Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/1168/comment/23185/
