Summit of this hill
This summit has been climbed in 2 logbooks.Hill features
Quite a rugged landscape. A mountain literally littered with dirty rocky crags along with scattered boulders ranging from 5m to 15m in possible climbing height. Sharp gritty granite, watch for chossy material lying dormant on all the ancient rock that is available is here. Loose rocks will be found frequently too. Grassy Heather bog terrain links all the dry rock together.
Approach notes
(Best and easiest approach) Can be approached from the town of carlingford at the South Side of the mountain, passing pj's pub on your left you head straight up the hill towards the mountain carefully until you see a walkers signpost. From that point you will already be able to spot out some of the fine bouldering that is available up on the mountainside.Can also be approached from the slieve Foye car park on the North East facing side of the mountain along the road between omeath and carlingford there is a turn off that will will take you up through a woodland where there is camping space, continuing up the road will take you to a car park a third of the way up the mountain slope, from there you can walk strenuously upward finding the line of least resistance through the rugged terrain until you reach the rocky crags that litter the top of the mountain. There are set times when that car park will be open and closed
