(see Dooish for previous part of walk). There is a drop of some 200m down from the summit of Dooish to reach Lough Aleahan which lies in the col before Saggartnadooish. This rocks above the lough are a beautiful place to stop and spend some time eating lunch, with waters of the lough lapping gently in a cold N breeze. The whole plateau reminds me very much of the Bluestacks with its water, rock, bog and isolation combining to give a rugged but captivating sense to the walker. It is a short and undemanding climb to the summit beyound the Lough. The top has several large boulders perched strikingly on thier own. There are fantastic views blocked only by the bulk of Dooish to the SW - in particular across to the Aglas and Muckish. I dropped down S into the valley for the climb up to the SE Top of Dooish (see for final part of walk). Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/454/comment/1667/
