New Comment: Highest point on the peninsula
by TommyV  Wed 30 Apr
I started from a similar location mentioned by sandman but didn't use any tracks. I hoped a fence and headed North until I reached the summit. Lovey early morning views of the North Mayo coast. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/1364/comment/24425/
