Lovely peak with great views
by Arcticaurora  17 Mar 2024
I approached from the south. Point B on the map and similarly to others, called to the house to get permission to enter. I walked up the right side and down the left. Entered the field near the mast, to reach the highest point. Fabulous views all around. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/778/comment/24158/
