Tilting at windmills
Short Summary created by jackill  6 Aug 2010
You can park at the wide entrance to the windfarm at W10616 73267 starA.
Climb over the double gates and walk uphill on a good track until you come to a second set of gates.
Go through these passing turf cuttings and look for the sign for windmill three.
Go up the track to windmill three W11317 73889 starB and climb the bank to your left.
Pick up a boggy track leading roughly north east which will bring you close to a wire fence heading
north.
Cross the fence and skirt the forest edge to the unmarked summit.
Note this area was very wet in July. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/646/comment/5405/
