From forest car park used map to figure out route. Clearing at summit so reasonable view. Pleasant walk about 3/4 hour. It was harder to navigate to car parknickywood106/05/2011

This is the highest point in Westmeath - nowhere near the Mourne mountains!Johnjoes17/03/2007
Described by Clements in his book The Height of Nonsense as The Hihhest Lowest. Care needs to be taken to ensure you go to the highest point as there are a number of cairns on route. A GPS reading will help.Harry Goodman17/05/2005

Ran over the top during an Orienteering Event. It was one of those "over the top or around" route choices.PN_Runner10/03/1989
