No access from point A.

Attempted to follow the same route as sandman. Parked at A (W56722 72804) and proceeded up the access road to InisCara (W56872 72729) where we discovered a gate and sign indicating PRIVATE PROPERTY. Respected the landowner's wishes and returned to our car.
Will attempt to enquire whether permission can be obtained on another occasion. Linkback: mountainviews.ie/summit/1334/comment/18855/

There are no small mountains, only small mountaineers.

Browsing online maps, it appears that there is a road that goes directly to the top of Garravagh North Top. I initially tried to access this way, but found the way gated and signed as private property. I knocked on door of the cottage right at the gate, but nobody was home.
I ended up heading around to the West side of Garravagh along R618 where the flank of the mountain is completely forested. There were no 'private property' or 'no trespassing' signs, so I tossed my bicycle in the bushes and had myself a leisurely stroll to the top.
The top has been very recently clearcut and the land significantly disturbed as a result. I stood on the highest tree stump and called it a successful summit. Linkback: mountainviews.ie/summit/1334/comment/16071/

A Hill close to Ballincollig.
by sandman

As this hill has been replanted you should visit the summit sooner than later. Ascent is via the gravel road at A (W56722 72804) and access is not an issue as the forest and hill is part of the Blarney Castle Estate. Numerous parking spots are available on this track as you make your way to B (W56789 72285) turning left and to follow a very faint trail to summit area.

Parked up a lane marked in picture. Owner of house at the end of the lane was happy to let us park. Said her neighbour wasn't. Easy enough to the top Linkback: mountainviews.ie/summit/1334/comment/23600/
