Climbed on 6/6/2017. Some of these smaller hills provide some fantastic views, and Doonties Commons dosen`t dissapoint, walked up from overgrown Grotto as suggested by Ciarraioch, the going was pretty rough and took 25mins to top, there are some interesting rock formations passed on way up. There is a substantial Trig on the Summit, views in all directions are fantastic, it was pretty showery when I visited. On way down there are fine views over Dingle Bay to a small Sea Stack called Shirragh An Searrach, maybe it might make it`s way onto Mountainviews sometime in the future Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/1214/comment/19543/
