Summit Comment TommyV a week ago
This route actually takes in the cairn on Knocnascallop and not the NW top which is five metres higher. My plan was to take in the NW top but after driving around it seemed that parking and access...

I followed the directions provided by sandman and I would second his opinion that this one is a summit bagging exercise. Very little to recommend about this one!

thomas_g: Track 3052 in area near Rocky Mountain, Mourne Mountains (Ireland)
Tour of the Annalong Valley
Length: 20.1km, Creator time taken: 6h16m, Ascent: 1293m,
Descent: 1288m

Places: Start at J35781 22316, Rocky Mountain, Chimney Rock Mountain, Slieve Donard, Slieve Beg, Cove Mountain, Slievelamagan, end at Start
Logged as completed by 1
This is a variation on a walk in the book 'Best walks in Ireland'. There is plenty of parking by the gates at the start of the walk, walking back down this road at the end of the walk is a nice cool down after a tough walk.
Please note that this route crosses the Annalong river at the weir, it may not be possible to cross here after heavy rain. There is a foot bridge, but there is a deep stream between the path and the bridge so I chose to directly cross the river instead.
