Coomura Mountain: Lough Reagh reflection

Summit Comment peter1 less than an hour ago
I climbed up through the Lough Reagh Aiguilles on Sunday and spotted Coomura reflected in the still waters of Lough Reagh on the walk in.

Slievemeel: An energy-sapping exercise in masochism.

Summit Comment Colin Murphy 8 hours ago
The was the third top in a three-summit circular walk involving Tievedockaragh and Finlieve, and by far the most unpleasant. Having bagged Finlieve I backtracked to J227 217 leaving me with a trek...

Finlieve: All in a row

Summit Comment Colin Murphy 8 hours ago
While descending Finlieve spotted this unusually orderly group of sheep who seemed to be playing 'follow the leader'.

Finlieve: A fairly remote, nondescript top.

One approach is to start at the forest entrance at J216 237. Ascend Tievedockaragh and continue to follow Batt's Wall past the summit, down into the col. Continue along the wall (which is partly r...

Croaghan: Wild flattish top.

Summit Comment Harry Goodman 12 hours ago
Climbed Croaghan, with a friend, on 26 Jan 2010. We started at Altarichard Car Park D123293 and turned left along the road until we reached a waymarker with red and blue arrows pointing the way to...

Croaghan: Ascent from Altarichard car-park

Summit Comment pdtempan 22 hours ago
Climbed Croaghan by what must be one of the shortest possible routes: across the moorland from the car-park at the top of Altarichard (D123294). Some steps lead down from the road to an informatio...

Slieve Binnian East Top: Super Nat Mountain

Summit Comment Bunsen7 23 hours ago
Cursing the lack of Brown Dots on the OSNI Mournes Map and my own failure to mark the exact location of Slieve Binnian's 4 VLs I was lucky to make the approach in clear weather from Carrick Little...

Track 4379 Onzy a week ago
Distance was 58k of which 4k was on a ferry - actual cycling time around 3 hours .... sometimes walking is too slow... cycle, Len: 2.8km, Climb: 197m, Area: Cooley/Gullion (Ireland) ||

Tievedockaragh: A short, steepish climb.

Summit Summary Collaborative entry Last edit by: Colin Murphy a day ago
Most straightforward approach is from the forest entrance at J216 237 where there is room to park for a couple of cars. About 30 metres along the forest track there is a stile on the left over Bat...

Broaghnabinnia: Access in Black Valley to Broaghnabinnea and Stumpa Dulaigh

Summit Comment Val Jones 3 days ago
A shame. We climbed Stumpa Dulaigh from there last year and met the farmer on our way back, just at Lough Reagh. He seemed nice enough - maybe something happened this year?

Picture: On Cornaclea Hill above L Nakeerogee and Annagh Strand.		  
An easily accessible top.
Short Summary created by Harry Goodman  24 Jan 2014
Start from the car park for the Deserted Village F640072 A and follow the stone track W for about 1.7km to F624070 B. Leave the main track and go NW up the hillside to a small subsidiary top and the ruins of an old Signal Tower. From here veer down W to a shallow col and then up NW a short way to gain the top of the hill with views down to the remote and, seldom visited, Annagh Strand and Lough Nakeeroge. Alternatively start from Dooagh village F606049 C and follow the track NE to its crest around F623067 D before leaving it and climbing up NW to the Signal Tower already mentioned above.
