Trek over moorland
by Fergalh  22 Feb 2021
Parked to the south at small layby beside stream , Go through gate on west side of stream following rough track beside stream for a while over moorland. Eventually you arrive up to summit marked by a trig pillar. A number of boulders along the way were unusually scattered. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/B5317/comment/22414/
