Panoramic views from the summit stretch for miles. On a good day you'll be rewarded with views to Inishowen and the Causeway Coast as far as Knocklayd at Ballycastle and beyond to the Scottish isles of Islay and Jura. If the conditions are right gliders from Ulster Gliding Club will fill the skies above not to mention the bird life soaringoff the cliffs.. The surrounding slopes are home to a number of rare alpine plants and birds. Follow the path NW down to the forest, when you arrive at a track turn right and you will soon be back at the start.
