            MountainViews.ie picture about Brown Mountain
Picture: Summit Area.
A Small Mountain.
by sandman 8 Jun 2015
Brown Mountain is situated close to the village of Church Hill and overlooks Lough Gartan but unfortunately due to the forest , views are restricted from the summit the best views are had from the summit of Crockraw. Access is via the forest entrance at GrtnWd (C06894 16239) following the trails as per the OS map or alternatively the shortest route is via the small road at Par Hs (C07006 15559) . If you intend to make a walk a trail to point A (C05433 14882) exists which connects the forest trails to open hillside, a kindly local has marked this route.
