Brandon Peak: One of the best for sure

Summit Comment Bunsen7 22 hours ago

Slieveboy: Fertile fields

Summit Comment Colin Murphy 2 days ago
Given its isolation, the views from Slieveboy are pastoral and pretty rather than breathtaking, although you do get a good sense of the fertile nature of North Wexford from its summit.

Previously Ballinard in MV.   Knockatee is the third highest hill in the East Kerry area and the 899th highest in Ireland. Knockatee is the most northerly summit in the East Kerry area.
