Started at tourist carpark s/e of Ben Gorm. Reached summit of Ben Gorm Ben Creggan South and Ben creggan | Danny Devlin | 22/01/2022 |
3/3 with Ben Creggan, Ben Creggan South Top and Ben Gorm. Via Tawnyard Lough using Horseshoe. Lovely round with great ridges. Loads better than Paddy Dillon’s route | nickywood1 | 08/05/2019 |
1/3 (Ben Gorm/Ben Creggan South Top/Ben Creggan) | Fergalh | 31/05/2018 |
Out and back from Killary Harbour, to Beinn Creggan. The start was a purgatorial slog through long tussock grass, probably more fun in the winter, but the reward is a great ridge walk and an amazing plateau. | Gill | 01/09/2014 |
From carpark by falls on Errill River. Up & down by the southerly of the 2 E ridges. | jimbloomer | 16/06/2010 |
