Summary
for Knocksculloge (Cnoc na Scológ):
Ease on down the road
Summary created by Colin Murphy, jackill
20 Sep, 2021
Cross the road, down an embankment, over a rusty gate and follow the track all the way to Knocksculloge.
A featureless summit but views of the Knockmealdowns and Comeraghs compensate.
An alternate approach is from the south. There is parking for a couple of cars at a forest entrance at A (S128 065). Walk 100m north up the road and cross the wall next to the bridge at B (S129 068), then follow the narrow track above the stream to about C (S127 073), then turn directly north towards the summit, crossing a grassy field and which which then begins to rise more steeply, but is a relatively easy climb through short heather (with plenty of sheep trails to assist). After about 600m you will reach the summit which is marked by a small pile of stones.

The image below shows the stream referred to in the short summary above, approaching from the south. A narrow track follows the line of the gully for about 500m, although it occasionally disappears. Linkback: mountainviews.ie/summit/680/comment/23283/
