Onzy: Track 3318 in area near Maumtrasna, Partry/Joyce Country (Ireland)
Maumtrasna: Up Skeltia and down Leynabrick
Length: 10.5km, Creator time taken: 2h55m, Ascent: 659m,
Descent: 372m

Places: Start at L98220 60292, Maumtrasna, end at L96810 61303 1.7km NW from Start
Logged as completed by 2
Route to Maumtrasna using the Skeltia and Leynabrick spurs running north from Lough Nafooey.

Maumtrasna is a curious hill. Basically a large plateau bitten into by a number of coums and with no obvious 'best' route to the top. The coums however provide a number of possibilities. This walk was prompted by a 2004 comment from miked, who suggested it, but found his attention grabbed by another coum having made his ascent.
