Short walk to summit from track
by Fergalh  7 Mar 2021
From Banc Yr Wyn head back to starting point. From here head north along track at first junction to west head east up firebreak to highest Point. This summit is unmarked and when i climbed in 2017 there was tree felling nearby so it may have no trees now Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/B7585/comment/22533/
