Tried it from the East as an alternative to Sandman's route; very sorry I did! Started at R2579389608 C followed track west. When it ended it left no alternative but enter the trees. Bad experience... if the "Donald" was to climb this hill he would describe it as "a very bad hill". Then he would build a wall around it. He would be right to do that. This hill is only for the list tickers. I climbed a few more hills that day just to wash away the memory of this one! Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/1306/comment/18907/

Parked at the entrance R2483590154 D and walked the forest road to R2495689664 E and we then went east along the forest road and went south through the mature forest towards the trig point. Half way between the road and the trig point there is a significant swart of wind fallen trees that proved difficult to navigate, we had scramble over some and crawl under others. For the return we found a much easier route going west and then north.

I recommend parking at R2483590154 D, following forest road to R2495689664 E and then the line of the trees south until you see/meet the forest boundary ditch around R25048944 F, follow that east and you cant miss the trig point. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/1306/comment/23513/
