Park at L888 673 A (Point A) in the entrance to a Coillte forest. Cross the road and begin to ascend the long ridge on the eastern side of Ben Creggan. This is a fairly gently rising slope about 3km long, with the going underfoot fairly solid, mostly rocky. Ground becomes markedly steeper at point L864 667 B, and continues in this fashion for the remaining 750m climb, which will take you directly to the well-defined summit, which is marked by a cairn. Amazing views of Mweelrea to the west and Tawnyard Lough to the east, although the view of Doo Lough is partially blocked by the bulk of Barrclashcame. Car to summit will take you about an hour and a half.

The farmer owning the valley (Brian Gibbons) is very sympathetic to hillwalkers, but would appreciate a courtesy call from any groups of more than three or four walkers planning to cross his lands. His number is (095) 42274 or alternatively call at his house 780m west of Tawnyard Lough at L898673 C. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/118/comment/4878/
