Easy ascent for interesting views.
Short Summary created by simon3, mcrtchly,  9 Nov 2014
This summit is a northerly extension of the Great Sugar Loaf, though separated from this by a road. It has some great views. One place to start is around O23156 15611 A where there is parking for 2 or 3 cars. Walk up a boggy tractor track to the summit. There is an easy scramble near the top. Up and down in 25 minutes. Alternatively take a minor road on the left whilst driving up the Rocky Valley Drive from Kilmacanogue and park near to water storage tanks besides a house at O23422 15355 B. Less than 10 minutes walk along path to the summit.
There have been a number of gorse fires over the years on Carrigoona Commons and the nearby Great Sugar Loaf, threatening houses. Trackback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/1223/comment/15467/
 
Easy top really
by Fergalh  9 Nov 2014
Take second right hand turn after Kilmacanogue, than first right follow this road to a house below the top and follow tracks behind house to summit. Trackback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/1223/comment/15804/
