MountainViews.ie Picture about mountain Barraduff Mountain (<i>Cnoc Bharr Dubh</i>) in area Caha Mountains, Ireland
Picture: Kenmare Bay from the summit.
 
Approach from the south west.
Short Summary created by Colin Murphy  30 Mar 2022
One approach is starting from V 896 635 starA, where there is just about parking for 2 cars. Just behind the parking spot a narrow trail starts in a NE direction and continues on and off until Castle Rock, which is a prominent rise and appears almost to be a separate top. After this you continue in a northerly direction across a flattish, occasionally boggy col, losing about 80m in height before ascending again, the last 300m or so becoming quite steep. The summit is unmarked but offers great views of Kenmare Bay and the surrounding hills. Return journey to car about 7km, taking about 2 hours.
