Looking forward to the walk.
by simon3  3 Aug 2017
This picture was taken in 1998 during one of the Galty Walks from the summit of Temple Hill. The pointy hill left of centre on the skyline is Lyracappul, while the ground rising towards Lyracappul on the right are the Knockaterrifs, which is an area I can guarantee that you will rarely meet anyone on.
