Trailtrekker: Track 2347 in area near Clermont Carn, Cooley/Gullion (Ireland)
Caders Bridge to Lumpars via Poc Fada
Length: 10.6km, Creator time taken: 2h46m, Ascent: 512m, Descent: 587m
Places:Start at J0942013510, Clermont Carn, Carnavaddy, end at J1002210785 2.8km S from Start Logged as completed by 2
A track that takes in the two MV summits of Clermont Carn and Carnavaddy. Once parked up you cross Cadgers Bridge and follow the farm tracks along the side of stone walls to the Poc Fada presentation area (12 standing stones and a small dolmen). The track then continues to follow clear mountain paths up to Clermont Carn and the mast. From here my track follows the yellow stone markers of the poc fada route to Carnavaddy, it should however be noted that there are better mountain tracks to the west of my route. From Carnavaddy the route follows the yellow poc fada stones down as far as the big ravine, at this point instead of continuing on back to the car my route turns and follows more vague tracks around Carrabane down to a quiet country road, before the last small section being on the more busy road and finishing up at the Lumpars pub with a nice wee drop of the local Cooley Whiskey!
This is a track in my native county that I would highly recommend!

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 59m + 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.
