I was only reminded of what a great walk this is last Saturday when I did it for the second time. Taking in The Gap, The Boolas, Crotty's Rock, Coumshingaun, Knockaunapeebra, Comeragh Mountain, Seefin and Coumfea. December was the first time that I had dropped by to have a look at Ned Curran's Cottage S295 075 and it's worth a visit.
