Broaghnabinnia: Access in Black Valley to Broaghnabinnea and Stumpa Dulaigh

Summit Comment Val Jones a day ago
A shame. We climbed Stumpa Dulaigh from there last year and met the farmer on our way back, just at Lough Reagh. He seemed nice enough - maybe something happened this year?

Which Side.
by sandman  14 Aug 2017
On approach from the coastal side this hill and ridge looks impressive but from the road on the Muckish side it looks a non entity. Access is via the track leading up to the old TV masts the ruins of which dot the summit area located at B9939232022 A or you can ascend via a farm gate where there is parking for one vehicle at B9926731824 B which is the quick route. Because of the ruins located at the summit area the 360 degree view is compromised but what a view across to Muckish . Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/1505/comment/19677/
