Short Summary created by Harry Goodman  16 Nov 2011
Route 1:On the R280 go E G796 515 starA along a minor road to a sharp bend left. A lane on the right G801 515 starB is the access route. In May 2010 a notice indicated "Private Road - No Entry" It is likely that this relates to vehicles and not walkers but permission to walk up should be sought at one of the houses near the start. The lane soon becomes an unsurfaced track that leads up towards and around the N end of the Keeloges escarpment. At G823 504 starC (3k along) leave the track and go SE up the heathery slopes for 1.7k to a standing stone G8393850070 starD on the long N to S ridge from Arroo Mt. to Aganny Top. Turn right and go S over Pt 453 G840 495 starE and then further on to a large cairn G8447749032 starF above and to the N of Lough Aganny. The high point of the hill, Pt 482 still lies some 300m away to the S side of the lough at G8445048751 starG, is unmarked and undistinguished in any way on the flat heathery moorland. The walk up and back is 12k. Route 2: On a minor road (L2127) off the R 280 take another minor road NE G864 434 starH. Park with consideration at G 871 442 starI and walk N going left at a Y junction. At G872 455 starJ go NNW uphill past an old sheep pen to Pt 423 (Agow Top) G865 472 starK. Aganny Top lies some 2.8k NW further along past the S tip of L Nabrack G858 475 starL. Out and back is 12.5k with the advantage of bagging Agow Top on way.
