We walked from the upper car park, therefore taking at least 30/40 minutes off the overall walk.The walk is along the old killarney /kenmare road . you turn off this road and start the climb. The climb is well laid out with railway sleeper over the boggy bits. Great views from the top. More

The whole family did this walk in New Year. Very achieveable for most people of reasonable (or less!) fitness. Bring the camera as there is a great view from the top. Lovely memories of a treasured family day out. More
