Presently a large windfarm is in the process of construction on this hill and eventually the easiest way of access to the trig will be via the internal wind farm roads . Linkback: mountainviews.ie/summit/1227/comment/17598/

by JohnRea

Parked at wide entrance to wind farm at B (S16308 43660). There is a track up to the wind farm. At T junction with the old tractor take the right and follow track to the last windmill, the trig point is near the mast. This is on a working farm so follow all proper protocols.
Great views on a nice sunny day. Linkback: mountainviews.ie/summit/1227/comment/24023/
