Kilmore Cross – Sliabh Mac a Ré- Conor Pass (Linear Walk)

  • Grade: C
  • Length: 8 km
  • Duration: 3 hours
  • Height gain: 600 m
  • Extension Option n/a

Start Point: Kilmore Cross @ O.S. Map 

Meeting at Kilmore Cross we initially follow a well defined track towards Loch a’Dúin for
1km before bearing to the south west. The underfoot conditions can be wet but as we gain
height up onto the shoulder of Sliabh Mac a Ré North East the ground improves. A steady
ascent beside an old stone wall brings us up onto the ridge where we are looking down to
the Conor Pass mountain road below us.
Following the top of the cliffs above Pedlars lake we are rewarded with views in all
directions, Brandon Ridge, Mount Eagle, Slieve Mish and in the distance the Macgillycuddy
Reeks.
A nice easy walk to the Conor Pass of 2km brings us to our cars.
