Driving towards Clifden along the N59, go 2km past the Benlettery Hostel and take the minor road on the right. I.5km along this, at point L750 499 A, there is a large space for parking on the right, which once marked the entrance to a wood, subsequently rewilded and restored to bogland.. Walk about 150m further along the road past the remnants of the forest and turn right into the open ground. The going here is boggy underfoot but passable. Continue directly east and after about 500m the ground starts to rise steeply, but becomes much firmer underfoot. As you continue up the terrain is almost exclusively rock, especially close to the summit. When you crest the summit area you will immediately see about three cairns close to each other, none of which constitutes the true summit. Continue past these for about 100m and you will see a sharply defined peak of rocks topped by a cairn. From car to summit is a distance of just 1.7 km and took approximately 1.25 hours.
