Logged as completed by 1

Start next to farm buildings (parking for several cars) and follow well-established track up towards Knocknagantee.

Great views down the valley towards Dromtine Lough and beyond. Leave track around 490m and head NW up the grassy slope to col between Knocknagantee and its West Top, picking up another very narrow trail heading E-W. Continue west (over large bump) for about 1.5km.

Spectacular views in all directions, but in particular towards the lough-dotted glen to the north. The summit area is a high, grassy mound about 120m long, and the high point is near the eastern end, marked by a rock and a post.

It is also worth visiting the western end to enjoy the views of Lough Dhoire Lanna and the coastline in the distance. Allow 3-3.5 hours for return journey.
