You thought Knockullane was bad?
Short Summary created by jackill  26 Aug 2010
Park at W22369 80417 starA where there is a large rough clearing
There is a forest road leading downhill to the southwest from this carpark.
Climb the bank created by the road cutting just as it meets the carpark and follow a rough, wet forest ride for 500 meters uphill.
You will emerge on open hillside covered in rough brown grass hiding a multitude of places that will twist your ankle or drown you.
Keeping a wire fence and the forestry to your left walk to the summit of Knockullane.
The ground does not improve much on the walk to Knockullane E Top, apart from one short section.The summit is located in a clearing just inside the outer edge of the forestry. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/789/comment/5548/
