Corranabinnia SW Top: Maol Rua - a lot of reward for a moderate challenge

Summit Comment ochils_trekker 12 hours ago
I had visited Corranabinnia itself on a previous occasion, ascending via Ben Gorm, and had resolved to re-visit as it is such a beautiful valley (Glendahurk). It is also probably the most eas...

Croaghonagh: Broad tracks all the way to top.

Summit Summary Collaborative entry Last edit by: Colin Murphy 4 days ago
A straightforward but longish ascent entirely up broad forest tracks. There is parking for several cars just off the Barnesmore Gap at H04758 87717. Proceed up track, encountering multiple ga...

Central Glenbeigh Horseshoe - 3 lakes and 4 peaks

Track 5136 glencree a day ago
The fun of this route is in the ascent and descent rather than the summits, which are uninspiring. But the as... walk, Len: 15.9km, Climb: 821m, Area: Keamconneragh, Glenbeigh Horseshoe (Irel|...

Carrickbyrne Hill: Very overgrown but passable

Summit Comment DeirdreM 5 days ago
The trail up to the summit is very overgrown since the last comments but can still be spotted. A small machete would do the trick. No views at all from the top with all the growth.

Energy sapping trudge over, rough, sponge-like terrain.

Track 5135 Colin Murphy 4 days ago
I could not, in all conscience, recommend this route! Well, except to say that it is doable and perhaps in bet... walk, Len: 6.9km, Climb: 402m, Area: Croaghmeen, South Donegal & West Tyrone (|...

Tievummera Highpoint: An obvious stop along the ridge

Summit Comment David-Guenot 5 days ago
The real highpoint stands close to the edge of the cliffs and is actually an obvious stop between Tievummera trig point and Barrclashcame.

Long walk for one Carn.

Track 5134 Colin Murphy 4 days ago
A walk of almost 10km, most of which is along forest trails. There is parking for about 10 cars in the Barnesm... walk, Len: 9.5km, Climb: 415m, Area: Croaghbrack, Bluestack Mountains (Ireland|...

Faha Ridge: Testing ridge with narrow irregular path. Often extreme.

Summit Summary Collaborative entry Last edit by: simon3 6 days ago
Start at the carpark under the Faha Grotto( marked on OS map) on the hillside overlooking Cloghane. There is room for 8-10 cars.Walk up the track past grotto and on until you cross over a wir...

Hare Island: A very pleasant four hours

Island Comment garrettd a week ago
The classic traverse of Heir and back. Rather than rushing for the ferry we had a toasted sandwich in the sunshine by the sailing school.

Dull trek up forest tracks

This is a straightforward but longish (and mostly dull) trek up forest tracks, but with some decent views towa... walk, Len: 9.7km, Climb: 467m, Area: Cruach Eoghanach, Bluestack Mountains (Ir|...

Garinish Island: White-tailed sea eagles on Gairinish

Island Comment garrettd a week ago
The nesting pair of sea eagles can be seen from the ferry taking passengers to and from Glengarriff. The thrill of seeing these magnificent birds in the wild was worth the ferry price alone, ...
