Colin Murphy: Track 4812 in area near Benbrack West Top, Breifne (Ireland)
Straightforward ascent of just 110m
Length: 2.1km, Creator time taken: 44m39s, Ascent: 193m, Descent: 75m
Places:Start at H0630420728, Benbrack West Top, end at H0651322108 1.4km N from Start Logged as completed by 1
One of the few interesting features - there are a number of exposed rockfaces like this at around 400m .
A relatively simple ascent, gentle for the first 1km, a bit steeper for last 0.5km. The summit is a broad, rounded heathery hump, unmarked.
The summit area seen from the east.
There are decent views of the surrounding Breifnes and the oddly named Munter Eolus Lough can also be seen about 1km NW. Up and down 1 hour 20 minutes.

NOTE: ALL information such as Ascent, Length and Creator time taken etc should be regarded as approximate. The creator's comments are opinions and may not be accurate or still correct.
Your time to complete will depend on your speed plus break time and your mode of transport. For walkers: Naismith's rule, an approximate though often inaccurate estimate, suggests a time of 0h 44m + time stopped for breaks
NOTE: It is up to you to ensure that your route is appropriate for you and your party to follow bearing in mind all factors such as safety, weather conditions, experience and access permission.
