A great walk through the beech woods to this summit which took just over the hour. With GB. | bolton | 13/09/2014 |
Parked at the Mullaghmeen Forest car park (N47952 779110) - Took the left-hand track out of the car park & followed the Red Route to the track junction at N47023 78956 - Turned left & followed the White Route for about 300m - Turned right up the track & then path to the summit cairn.

Forest carpark at 480778. Got lost on the approach (turned L too soon). | jimbloomer | 19/09/2011 |
Great views, long drive, 35 minute walk... | Roen | 23/07/2011 |
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 park | nickywood1 | 06/05/2011 |

This is the highest point in Westmeath - nowhere near the Mourne mountains! | Johnjoes | 17/03/2007 |
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 Goodman | 17/05/2005 |

Ran over the top during an Orienteering Event. It was one of those "over the top or around" route choices. | PN_Runner | 10/03/1989 |
