by Fergalh  19 Oct 2020
From Car park to south a short but steep climb up to the Oratory at the top Impressive views of the island normally but was misty when I was here unfortunately. Very impressive building in the mist when climbing, this is the southern most point of the island. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/B5440/comment/20996/
