Parking for a couple of cars at T25481 90823 A. On the right is a track leading up to a house, and just visible to the left is a very narrow track leading through some dense undergrowth. Follow this for about 100m to T25305 90807 B, crossing a forestry gate on right. Follow this relatively straight track for about 1km where you will see a broader clearing on the track on the right. Just past this, watch for another narrow, one-person track on the right. This leads up to a broad summit area, covered in tree stumps, grass, thistles, briars and foxglove. Follow the tree line on the left until you reach an old boundary wall, which seems to be the highest point. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/1270/comment/15514/

Climbed on 21/02/2014, started at T25481 90823 A, followed narrow muddy gorse lined track to T25305 90807 B. turned right here and arrived at T249319321 there is a forest track heading uphill to the left here, this is not indicated on OS Sheet 56. Headed uphill here to path`s highest point and headed right into mature forest on an indistinct track towards an old boundary wall to summit area, there is mature farmland on the other side of this woodland with plenty of sheep grazing here. Carrick Mt in all it`s glory is in clear view to the west from here. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/1270/comment/15873/

Out for a weekend walk on a fine sunny morning in late November. Parked at the recommended spot and headed up the path behind the houses. On a previous visit in April this section was very muddy but it was surprisingly dry on this occasion. Reaching the barrier, we skirted around it and continued on a wide forest path with the hill on our right and views across the countryside to our left. We followed this path for about a kilometre to T 24726 90554 C, where there is a narrow path up through the trees.

After about 100 metres we arrived at T 24680 90681 D a T-junction with a wide grassy path. Taking the left turn we quickly joined a forest road towards the summit.

Accessing (or even identifying with precision) the highest point is slightly tricky. To the left of the path there is a cleared area between two areas of standing forest. On arriving at the cleared area T 24681 90774 E you can leave the path immediately and follow the edge of the forest, picking your route over slightly rough ground, until you reach a wall with a stone stile T 24537 90947 F. The highest point is in that vicinity. Enjoy the views across the valley to Carrick Mountain.

On the descent we made a small diversion to T 24743 90670 G a rocky outcrop with lovely views, an ideal place to stop for lunch or a snack. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/1270/comment/24084/
