New Comment: Slieve Callan's little brother
by TommyV  18 May 2023
Some summit baggers will have visited Slieve Callan to bag the highest point in West Clare, but few will have crossed the R460 to take in Slieveacurry. I found parking tight at the spot mentioned by Fergalh so I parked further North where the road meets a forestry track at R11324 80760 starA. There is a gate a few metres down the road on the left which gives access to a farm track that leads partially up the hill. After the track ends there is little choice but to cross the wet boggy terrain, cross under a fence on a ditch, hop a drain and finally climb over a Grand Nationalesque embankment. All the hard work is rewarded by a bland unmarked summit. Still it was good to finally bag my 14th and final West Clare summit. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/1209/comment/23950/
