Picture: Rather flat top restricts view
While I drove to within a few metres of the summit, it might be better to park at B'collop (W49128 41557) (room for 1 car). There is an interesting memorial cross at this location as well.
The summit is up a track and then over an electric! fence into a field where the track turns. The exact location of the summit is difficult to ascertain and the general flatness of the hill does restrict the view. I did try and upload my 3m 54s gps track, but apparently I didn't do enough 'activity'.
It's worth parking up in Courtmacsherry and walking up the country lanes to the top.
It's about a 6km round trip. Beautiful views on a clear day especially on the way back down.
I uploaded a GPX fie from where the actual peak seems to be. Linkback: mountainviews.ie/summit/1358/comment/24159/
