Rocky summit
by Fergalh  12 Oct 2022
From Cerrig Cochion head back to main track and following fence drop down a bit. As the mountain is seen here it appears daunting but again following the main track alongside the fence a rough track to the right appears. This leads to the mid-section of the rocky escarpment and a very minor scramble will lead to the large rock and boulder-strewn summit. This is unmarked and a minor climb is needed to sit near the summit Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/B2034/comment/23693/
