Longitude: -6.283611, Latitude: 53.105089 , Easting: 315004, Northing: 207402 Prominence: 100.35m,  Isolation: 2.1km
ITM: 714928 707434,   GPS IDs, 6 char: Lugala, 10 char: Luggala
Bedrock type: Granite with microcline phenocrysts, (Type 2p microcline porphyritic)

Also known as Fancy, from Ir. Fuinnse [PNCW], 'ash-tree', and Cloghoge. Price's interpretation of this name as Log an Lágh, 'hollow of the hill', is doubtful. There is no evidence in dictionaries for the existence of a word lágh with this meaning. The second element does not appear to be lá, 'day', either.   Luggala is the 307th highest place in Ireland.

Luggala, Tonelagee, central Wicklow at its finest.
by simon3  4 Sep 2023
The angles of Luggala strong in the sun, viewed from White Hill. The skyline central profile of Tonelagee almost dark relieved by the silver spot that is Lough Ouler. Two birds hunt, their wings reflecting the glorious sun. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/286/comment/24027/
