Short Summary created by wicklore  25 Jul 2010
One approach to Hangman’s Hill is from the public road at G7567 4001 starA. It is possible to drive to G7668 4012 starB where the public road ends. There is room for one car here without blocking the farmers track leading on into the valley. it is possible to follow this faint track to G7753 4016 starC and beyond giving great access to the Keelogboys and Hangmans Hill. Although crossing a wide section of bog it is not too wet or heavy going. Head first for the pointed hill on the left hand side of the Hangmans Hill ridge and watch out for Irish Lizards which live on this hill. Hangmans Hill offers great views of the various Keelogyboy hills, as well as Crockauns, Glencar Lake and over Kings Mountain to Truskmore. There is a great sense of wilderness in this area.
