Along the ridge
by bryanmccabe  16 May 2021
The routes proposed by paddyhillsbagger and sandman are short and steep. If you want a longer and more gradual ascent, you can start in the vicinity of the parking area at M 0044 5977 starC and follow the high ground, gradually curving around clockwise onto the main ridge. Alternatively park at Finny Church and incorporate a short road walk to get to this parking area. A decent effort needed to bag this binnion.
