Not a hill that will live long in the memory.
Short Summary created by Harry Goodman  16 Nov 2011
A visit to this top will most likely be made by walkers doing a circuit of other hills in the area. However, because it shares the same starting point with that for Keeloges it is also possible, on the way to Aghalateeve, to make a short detour and bag Keeloges, a much more rewarding top. Park at a Church on the Kinlough to Manorhamilton road (R280) at G803 503 starA and walk south along the road 400m to a gate and track on the left.. Cross over and follow the track E uphill towards the cliff face of Keeloges. Make for a gully with evidence of subsidence and, to the right of it, a green zig zag track which goes up the steep hillside to the broad summit ridge near the SW end of Lough Keeloges G813 498 starB. (If a detour to Keeloges is to be taken it is a short and easy climb up N to the top). For Aghalateeve go around the S tip of the Lough and climb up E to Pt 442 G814 497 starC before descending SE across flat marshy ground, with a number or small fenced in boggy areas, and then up to Pt 432 marking the high point G822 490 starD. This lies along a N to S high edge on the flat, non-descript, peat hagged moorland and is marked by a few stones placed there by mv members. Return by way of ascent.

In search of Madfrankie's Cairn
by Harry Goodman  31 May 2010
Climbed this hill from the E on Sat 22 May 2010 as part of a round which also included Arroo Mt, Aganny Top and Keeloges. (For prevoius part of route see my comments on Aganny Top.) On leaving Aganny Top we headed down W through thick heather to cross a stream at G8330048900 starE some 1.1 k down the slope before climbing up to Agalateeve's flat and rather uninteresting peat hagged top. This long walk down and climb up through heather was tedious and by far the only blot on an otherwise perfect round. However the MV co-ordinates for the top G8220049000 starD brought us unerringly to the long N to S flat top ridge of the hill and to "Madfrankie's Cairn" G8221448944 starF where we ceremoniously added a couple of new stones. Coming as we did from the E and covering much of Agalateeve's flat top both to and along its N to S high edge we would not dispute his choice of spot to mark the top. This said, in my view, the only reason one would wish to climb this hill would be to to add it to a mv list or more likely as part of a circuit over other more interesting tops. With our cairn building complete we headed NW to our fourth and final hill of the round Keeloges. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/679/comment/5841/

Aghlateeve lies a dull and monotone 1.4km SE of Keeloges. More a rise in the moorland than a 'mountain', it's flat and peat-hagged summit offers few possibilities for a highest point. However this didn't stop me from assembling a small heap of stones on a likely spot. Feel free to contribute a rock in the unlikely event of you ever visiting this place.
