The marking of Tonduff North and Tonduff South as separate hill-names on the Discovery map does not seem justified, as there is only a single peak.   Tonduff is the 211th highest place in Ireland.

Ascending from the south as part of a route from Djouce/War Hill
by conororourke  19 Nov 2019
Summiting on Tonduff via a route from Djouce & War Hill, an option to incorporate the mountain as part of a longer route. From the summit of War Hill: " a small pile of rocks marks the summit cairn (War Hill) here and can be tricky to find in poor visibility. From here, took another bearing for Tonduff across the valley - a natural path descends but you really have to find your own line to cross the the river Dargle. No particular flow to be seen as the river tributaries are obscured by grasses and reeds, but took the time to find a safe crossing. My route took me across the river after it forks (2 crossings) and there was no need to trek further upstream to avoid the Dargle entirely. From here, pick a spot on Tonduff and aim for it crossing the heather - not particularly boggy here but only some hap-hazard animal tracks so slower going. From Tonduff it was a lovely tip down to Maulin and on to Crone Wood" Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/206/comment/20682/
