There is parking for one or two (at a squeeze) cars at W03922 64895 A, but be careful not to block access to the two gates. Proceed down the road that leads to Lough Nambrackderg and you will immediately see a rough track (muddy in parts) on your right, leading up the slope. Follow this until it peters out around W03237 64647 B and then continue up and around the curve of the mountain in a S - SSW direction. The terrain is mostly grassy stretches among rocky outcrops. The summit is a large rounded outcrop. Fine views all around, particularly when the two loughs below are visible. Allow 2 hours up and down.

To the northeast of the summit, at a height of 263m, lies the pretty Lough Nambrackderg. A short walk taking in the summit and a circuit of the lake is possible from parking at W03922 64895 A. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/1437/comment/18207/

Onzy's comment had reminded me that I'd been meaning to do the circuit of Lough Nambrackderg for some time.
One route up is the spur between Lough Nambrackderg and Lough Beg which is a good scramble, with a few unprotected moves on slippery rock.
Other options from this side are the gully on the south side of Lough Nambrackderg which looked easy enough as gully climbs go and possibly the easiest option, the spur to the south of Lough Beg. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/1437/comment/18405/

The Caoinkeens can be seen well from the vicinity of Conigar. Caoinkeen SE is to the left, the main summit to the right. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/1437/comment/19941/

The top has this fine roche moutonnée. Ice has passed over the rock, smoothing to the right of the picture, plucking the highpoint shown in the centre. Much of the rock around the summit area is like this . great for resting out of the wind when it is coming from the right direction.
In this particular photo, we were surveying the height of the summit. Previously we had found a suitable candidate for the col between this summit and Caoinkeen so we can get a reasonably accurate prominence figure. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/1437/comment/23199/

Caoinkeen South East Top is easily reached from Caoinkeen itself. From the northeast, the summit looks almost like a ridge, with a number of prominences competing for the highpoint. The summit area itself however, is more plateau-like with three definite contenders for the honour, with W02812 63787 C registering highest for me.
