Adjacent to Coumshingaun in the western Comeraghs, Kilclooney is a flat, boggy top perched above much more interesting ground to the N and E. Some of the nearby coombs are quite spectacular but none more so than Coumshingaun. There's a lot of v steep ground so care should be taken. Extensive views from the summit area incl. Slievenamon, the Galtees, Knockmealdowns and much of Wexford and Waterford.

E. Roomy car park at Kilclooney Wood S34106 10222 A. Head thru the woods, aiming to start the steep descent of the W spur at S34051 10752 B. Zoom in on the map to see the route to here. Head uphill on v rocky ground following tracks as you go. You will reach a point just under the plateau with a steep and tricky looking climb. This is the only way up or down on this side of the lake and afterwards it's easy to the plateau where you head across bog to the summit cairn. Return by looping around the top of the coum. Allow 2hrs to the top.

S. Park at S31394 08025 C and head on a trail up Coomfea's long, steep SE spur. At S30821 08417 D take the trail that veers NNW around the top of Coummahon, first to the top of Knockaunpeebra and then across a boggy col and up to Kilclooney. Allow 2 hrs. Return the same way.
From here, you can also take the Mahon Falls walk and cross the river at S30946 09109 E before heading steeply up to K'peebra and on to K. Allow 1.5hrs but note that the river may not be fordable after heavy rain.

Notable tracks incl. track/3570, track/4041 and track/3657. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/48/comment/4808/
