Short trek to summit

by Fergalh 8 Jan 2023

Parked at A (V656 541) beside lake Fadda room for one or two cars. Crossed gate and followed track for 100 metres before a short steep climb to plateau Follow ridge to high point with a small cairn. Interestingly enough just below the summit to the North east there is a large well made triangular cairn Linkback: mountainviews.ie/summit/1337/comment/23789/
