Slievebawn: Worth the short walk up, less steep turf and stone path.

Summit Comment gaoithe 2 hours ago
We did this on roasting hot day after going up and down Mt. Leinster by road. Nice walk up. Legs welcomed the stretch and walk on turf and rock after the steep tarmac road down the bigger mountain...

Knockboy: What a location (on a fine day!)

Summit Comment hazyview 11 hours ago
The most incredible views on the drive up to Priest's Leap. Still squelchy underfoot in parts despite glorious weather. Stick to the fence: we went astray at one stage when we left it.

Mullaghcleevaun: Light colours, uncertain future.

Summit Comment simon3 a day ago
During a heat wave in 2022 this was the view of Mullaghcleevaun seen from the slopes of Kippure to the North East. Overall the colour is much lighter than usual. The purple is of the heather,...

It would be possible to drive from Point A up to the first gate, which is only a couple of hundred metres from the top. It would be possible to park at a junction within metres of the gate. B...

Carrigalougha: There are bigger and better fish to fry nearby

Summit Comment Pepe 3 days ago
Parked at W142 717 and plodded through the boggy terrain. A short but uncomfortable trudge up and down: reeds, tall grass, rocks, dodgy footing, midges, fences, etc, etc. Up top the views are...

simon3: Track 2367 in area near Knocknagun, Dublin/Wicklow (Ireland)
Dublin Mountains from Glencree.
Length: 19.7km, Creator time taken: 5h21m, Ascent: 656m,
Descent: 778m

Places: Start at O14126 17993, Knocknagun, Tibradden Mountain, Glendoo Mountain, end at Start
Logged as completed by 1

This walk started from the Glencree Reconciliation Centre. This can be a reasonably secure place to park however may require payment. There is also a cafe there. Find out when the place shuts before you set off.
This walk goes over Knocknagun and takes a heathery descent to the forest above the Glencullen valley. It is possible to extend the walk onto Two Rock (see other tracks for how to do this.) or go over Tibradden Mtn as shown.
The river north of Glencree may become impassable in high rain requiring a walk around another route such as via the Military Road.
