simon3: Track 932 in area near Knocklomena, Iveragh (Ireland)
Four tops west of Moll's Gap.
Length: 10.7km, Creator time taken: 5h55m, Ascent: 950m,
Descent: 837m

Places: Start at V78741 77240, Knocklomena, Bascadh, end at V86074 77502 7.3km E from Start
Logged as completed by 2
This is a testing linear walk starting on the public road near Lough Brin and ending at the carpark and cafe at Moll's Gap.
Note that the going underfoot is slow even going downhill due to the untracked rough ground. With more time it would be possible to include the two VL's at the east end (Cnoc na gCapall and Boughil).
