Summary
for Knocknagree East Top (Cnoc na Groí (mullach thoir)):
Fine top with good access mostly on trail
Summary created by Colin Murphy
13 May, 2025
Ross Cem (V74202 47176) (assuming no mass/funeral etc taking place.) Walk up the tarred road for about 1km to K'Cul Ln (V73877 47731), passing farm buildings (the amenable farmer has previously had no issue with walkers.) and climb over a gate onto a good track. This will take you a further 3km up to A (V73453 50347) - onto open hillside and an elevation of 410m. From there it is a 1km trek NE across walkable terrain, if a little rough in parts, (longish grass, rock outcrops, boggy in places) to the unmarked but fairly well-defined summit, which offers top notch views in all directions. A 5.5km walk from car to top in total, but aided greatly by the good track.

Views north from the summit.

Knocknagree E Top has views of the ridge enclosing the pocket to the north. From near the summit a keyhole view opens up of the eastern reeks which can be seen in this picture just to the left of Lackabane.
Knocknapeasta, the highest of the Reeks visible is 34.75km away. Linkback: mountainviews.ie/summit/576/comment/14849/

Hills from the Beara Way 4

See Knocknagree for route here.
I would love to comment on the fine views we experienced on this top. True, it was just below the mist level when we arrived, but we were busy pulling on our waterproof trousers and jackets to notice one. The light rain on Knocknagree had turned into a down pour, by the time we had reached the East Tops summit. And our plan for a traverse of the 7 MV hills between Castletownbere to Adrigole was looking very doubtful now.
We returned pasted the Glas Loughs and swung round east, towards Knocknagree SE Top. It was here we picked up a marked trail, well, lots of painted dots, some arrows which lead to within a few metres of the summit of Knocknagree SE Top. On this our 5 top of the day, we decided to call it a day. Wifey non-pulsed about tackling Hungry Hills crags in the rain and mist. We returned towards the Glas Loughs, passing by the south tip of the smallest at B (V735 498) to pick up the track down at C (V73273 49963). This track leads all the way down the R572 by a church at Curryglass. You can of course pick up the Beara Way again, and follow it back to Castletownbere. Or in our case, being sopping wet, phone for a taxi, which arrived in 10 mins, to whisk us back to town for some afternoon Guinness. Linkback: mountainviews.ie/summit/576/comment/6026/
