Short Summary created by Colin Murphy, jackill  7 Feb 2023
Park at the forestry entrance at R71783 23247 starA and then walk along easy forestry roads, taking the first right, the first left and then the first right to the summit. The summit (The Pinnacle) is somewhat ruined by the telephone mast adorning it. Without it the views would be quite something. It is easy to see where the name comes from with the shear drops to the plains of Limerick below to the east. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/563/comment/5322/
