Picture: This rocky outcrop marks highpoint
See Binbane summary for initial approach. From Binbane this top is a mere 600m. Head directly east, dropping down to about 400m elevation at the col, which is spotted with a few small pools. From the col the climb is just 40m. The highpoint is on a rocky outcrop with a small pile of stones on top. About fifteen minutes from one top to the next.

simon3 on Binbane NE Top
by simon3 4 Oct 2007
This top is part of the ridge from the brilliant viewing point of Binbane towards the bulk of the Bluestacks. As of 2007 there is absolutely no path along this ridge. The going is wet and rough underfoot.

Access can be had from the road at A (G8408 8893) over rough ground beside a forest.

Like Binbane the top has excellent views. The photo shows the beach at Loughros with the complex peak of Slievetooey above it on and the summit of Common Mountain the peak shown to the left skyline. Linkback: mountainviews.ie/summit/663/comment/2851/

Slow going but worth it!
by Geo 19 Sep 2013
Started this round of the two Binbane's and their neighbour Cloghmeen Hill by parking at approx B (G825 884) at an old house on the right. Followed the boreen NE to junction where Bluestack Way diverges, turning right uphill along a slightly poorer but nonetheless excellent surface - this road is only one car wide so driving on here would cause parking and meeting farm traffic issues!. At the end of this surfaced road the BW turns right and uphil,and more importantly is now cross-country. You will definitely need good boots and gaiters from here on, I can testify to that! I drifted off the way aiming for the col between BBNET and CH. The going is slow, soggy and rough underfoot, don't expect to be fast. I went to the Grid ref given by Simon but one could choose adjacent peat hags which look of si ilar height but may not last as long as the outcrop chosen. From here you'll hopefully see Binbane's trig to the SW. Linkback: mountainviews.ie/summit/663/comment/15191/
