Short Summary created by Peter Walker, jackill  8 Apr 2015
Turn off the main road at R68750 76075, Ballycuggeran Woods, and follow the good forestry access road to a carpark , room for 10 cars. Make your way by various forest tracks to R66095 75400 starA, follow the track leading into the forest heading roughly east here.
Exit the forest at approximately R 65800 75500 starB onto rocky track. Go uphill on this track turning north at the top forest edge and steeply around to the east again before the track ends at the edge of a bog. Cross about 1km of bog to the small summit cairn.
