Through low trees to top
by Fergalh  9 Feb 2014
Take first right after Derrylinn village, then first left. Stop at (H 26881 30268 starC). Proceed up track to gate, cross field and go to top right hand corner where there is a gap in the fence. Now follow fence up through trees to rock. The fence is easily crossed here and follow the tracks through trees to top. The trig pillar will be a short distance to south Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/1302/comment/15843/
