Located opposite Ireland's highest pub this trail follows an old bog road through a working sheep farm and up to the top of the hill. From the highest point, in an unexpected quietness, there are unlimited views of the surrounding mountain ranges, some wind turbines and the possibility of seeing the white tailed eagle as well as other flora and fauna.
