Great views from summit which is a huge local landmark
by Fergalh  30 Dec 2020
Park to the North on large car park. Than follow steep track up through forest and through open ground and the unusually named sections "hells gate" and "heavens gate" until you get to the trig pillar and extensive views in all directions Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/B2843/comment/21895/
