B9927 : South descent on Muckish

taken 13 years ago, 7 km SSE of Ballyboe, Co Donegal, Ireland

South descent on Muckish

The easiest route up and down Muckish Mountain is from the south. An hours climb from the parking spot near a grotto on the R256 (the bend in the road seen below) gives way to a long flat plateau. This is the view on the descent - the quartzite boulders soon give way to springy peat all the way down to the road.
