Ridge summit south of Coomcallee
Short Summary created by Colin Murphy, simon3  12 Jun 2023
There is parking for a couple of cars at V 63582 65203 starA. Follow Kerry Way until it emerges from wood at 62811 65060 starB, and then proceed up a rough, steep track towards the hill. Alternatively you can continue on original track from road through wood as far as 631 658 starC, cut through the trees and follow a rough forestry track up the slope.
A third, much longer approach involves parking at V59312 65108 starD, bagging the twin Staigue Tops and them making a lengthy trek north-east along a 3.5km ridge and then returning directly down the valley (see track),
The two Esknaloughoge tops are separated by just 300m and a small, hidden lough. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/734/comment/5493/
