I've forgotten how many times I've gone up this hill, must be over 50. I live relatively close so its the easy option when larger 'expeditions' are a non starter. It has a very decent balcony walk on the eastern side and superb views of the Blackstairs from the top. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/739/comment/20345/
