Beautiful day in County Clare. Really enjoyable walk which is marked all the way to the top from the carpark in Ballycuggaran Woods. The boggy bit is now covered in stone and the last bit is a boardwalk. Really lovely vista and that was without the sun. | Audi-Anne | 19/03/2016 |
From the Forest car park with GB. The path at the side of the firebreak is now gravel and makes for an easy ascent. N.W summit is highest but visited S.E point and the stone with the plaque. Great weather. | bolton | 11/09/2014 |

From lake to summit via East Clare way. Cloudy, humid weather all the way. Warm and boggy. | Roen | 18/08/2011 |
Up from car park near Loch. You could ring my boots out after this. Strange sunnit furniture too. Good view of Lough | nickywood1 | 12/05/2011 |
2nd half of ascent from Feenlea was grim. Mud track turned to porridge. Twins inseperable with Abney. | jimbloomer | 20/09/2010 |
Started at car park in Ballycuggman Forest R686760 and followed the South Clare Way up to its high point. Where it begins to descend I took a forest ride on the right and at its end again took a right turn up a worn muddy path to Moylussa Top (R648759) ma | Harry Goodman | 12/07/2008 |
dullish dryish tussock/heather summit, big views. from S, park at Aillemore, a bit GOML & prob not best choice except maybe for Cragnamurragh | RHW | 29/04/2005 |
Not so nice hill race, loads of very fast forest track with a short steep stretch of almost knee deep mud beside a forest. Good views from the top. | PN_Runner | 15/06/2003 |
Not sure of the date in April. | peter.stone | 01/04/2002 |
