Picture: the cairn on Seefin Mountain E Top 		 
To the cairn
by paddyobpc  25 Jan 2017
We are frequent visitors to Seefin Mountain, mostly from the car park referenced by madfrankie and marked A on the map. The cairn on Seefin Mountain E Top is easily reached by heading on the track uphill from point A until you pretty much reach the highest point. The cairn of Seefin Mountain E Top should be visible to the right from here and is a very short walk away at this stage. Great views towards the Galtees, Coolfree, Carrigeenamronety and below the mountain, Castle Oliver should be visible. This area can also be visited while walking the Blackrock Loop (http://www.coillteoutdoors.ie/index.php?id=173&rec_site=161&trail=297) .
