Unremarkable summit with good views
Short Summary created by Colin Murphy, simon3, jackill  21 Dec 2020
Go to the forest entrance at S22452 09704 starA. there is room here for a few cars.
Walk down the forest track across the road, crossing a ford and follow the track to a T-junction, turn left and continue to track's end and you can see open ground. Continue directly easy up the heathery summit, which is a steepish in parts. There is an old wooden cross erected in a pile of stones to the north west of the broad summit area, but the top is an unmarked area of flattish bogland about 600m further east. There are good views towards the Knockanaffrin Ridge and the Comeraghs. Time from car to summit: 55 minutes. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/619/comment/5378/
