Good access and views from this useful intermediary summit.
Short Summary created by simon3  6 Nov 2011
This summit has famous views particularly towards the lakes in view such as Lough Tay and Lough Dan. and forms part of a number of circuits such as routes from Scarr and Luggala. An attractive way of reaching it is from the Sallygap to Roundwood road (R759) at one of a number of carparks such as one at O169073 starA. (Note: on a good day these can often fill up by 10:30am.) Walk to the Pier Gates or entrance to the Luggala Estate which kindly allows walkers to descend into the valley of the Cloghoge River. Walk south on this over a bridge and heading west uphill from around O1580 0593 starB. Return trip around 2h20m.
Two other places to start are from the Military Road R115 parking at around O113 074 starC and walking nearly 3km SW to the summit or from the south perhaps after visiting Scarr/ Kanturk via around O136046 starD. This last route requires you to cross the Inchavore river which isn't possible after heavy rain. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/386/comment/5145/
