This is a short route taking in two outliers of the main Glenbeigh Horseshoe range. Parking at V93526 80439 (Map 78) I followed the Kerry Way up to the col between Coolroe and Seefin on a good track. From the col it's a quick 15 minutes up to Coolroe to enjoy great views across to the main Glenbeigh range. Back to the col and a long slog over wet ground up to Seefin. (Don't follow the fence like I did but keep well to the left or right of it - It is quite boggy). Seefin has a trig pillar set into reddish ground surrounded by a circle of white stones. There are great views across to Curra Hill and further afield to the McGillycuddy Reeks. I then took a direct route across country back towards my car, negotiating steep hillside on the way. A nice short(ish) walk to finish a few days of long hiking, and two quiet summits visited along the way.

NOTE: ALL information such as Ascent, Length and Creator time taken etc should be regarded as approximate. The creator's comments are opinions and may not be accurate or still correct.
Your time to complete will depend on your speed plus break time and your mode of transport. For walkers: Naismith's rule, an approximate though often inaccurate estimate, suggests a time of 2h 2m + time stopped for breaks
NOTE: It is up to you to ensure that your route is appropriate for you and your party to follow bearing in mind all factors such as safety, weather conditions, experience and access permission.
