Lofty bump on Reeks ridge.
Short Summary created by simon3  12 Jun 2016
Cnoc an Chuillinn East Top is essentially a minor bump in the middle of the MacGillycuddy's Reeks. Usually it is visited while walking the ridge between Maolán Buí and Cnoc an Chuillinn both of which are slightly higher. Like everywhere on the ridge the views and exposure are great.

Lough Comin Moir Mountain in the centre of the photo as as viewed from the summit of Maolan Bui. The summit of Cnoc an Chuillin is just visible in the clouds to the right of centre.
On the extreme left you can see the track which leads all the way back to the Devils ladder and points beyond if you've got the energy. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/12/comment/1143/
