The fun of this route is in the ascent and descent rather than the summits, which are uninspiring. But the ascent via Coomreagh gives excellent views of Coomaglaslaw Lake and then reveals the spectacular scenery obove Coomasaharn Lake. There's an interesting geological feature visible from the Coomreach ridge called Leam-a-Saggarth (the Priest's Leap) on the OSI map which PDT gives as Drom an Bháid in local use.
We stayed outside the wire fence, thus skirting Teeromoyle on the ascent, to reach the summit of Coomacarrea. Then back to pick off the summits of Teeromoyle, Mullaghnarakill, and Been Hill, guided by a wire fence for much of the route in deteriorating visibility.
The descent is via Coomnacronia Lake, with an interesting rocky river bed at its exit. There is a water treatment facility which provides a roadway at the end of the walk.
