In Richard Mersey’s [The Hills of Cork & Kerry] there is a description of “ Sugarloaf Traverse” starting, naturally enough, from Sugarloaf. “But from the top westwards .. is as tough as anything in Beara. Many a cliff and gully bar your progress, and as your swing north the Caha lakes force you into more extensive diversions.” Nareeva is at the start of this area. While relatively tame itself, Richard Mersey describes the area north of it “This must be the wildest part of Beara”. Certainly, looking at the map the multiplicity of small lakes known as “Caha Lakes” must be testing to navigate through. Great place for a night assessment. Must go back.

Unfortunately it looks like the access at V91465 53888 D isn't an option any more - there are multiple no access signs and the gate is covered in barbed wire, just in case you didn't get the hint from the signs. As an alternative I parked on the roadside at V91700 54569 A (1 car) and followed the old Beara Way towards Sugarloaf (which is visible from miles away), which joins up with the track described by Jackill.

Parked at Mass Mount Church (a ruin with roadside parking) crossroads at V824 506 E.
Walked East, about 100m or so, to a fence end. Up onto the ridgeline. Rough enough though long grass,boggy sections & waist high gorse. But worth the effort. You can walk along the Beara Way when you meet it or stay on the ridge. Lough Keel..... Infinity Pool amazing. Nareera is a wild and worthy peak.

Turned North. Truly wonderful features, formations, streams, rocks, troughs, slabs, lakes. Hiked around to Glenkeel Lough. Descended via the track. Turns in and about. Takes you down to farm (via water scheme road.....So no yards, fields, farms or livestock disturbed. Track turns to tarmac. Long enough walk, via a small rolling road, back to the car.

Great hike. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/394/comment/24014/
