Brandon Peak is a spectacularly placed peak along the Brandon ridge. It’s surrounded by v steep ground on a 180 degree Eastern sweep so take care in bad weather. Grand views of nearby hills from Eagle to Beenoskee and further afield to Iveragh, Kerry Head and, at times, Loop Head.
The peak is usually reached in combination with others including Brandon, Brandon S. Top and Gearhane and possibly Masatiompan.
