Setting off from Cronin's Yard. Veer left at the steel foot bridge. Follow the Way points to the Lake. keep left of the lake so as not to miss the ramp up to BenGun.This can easily be done in low cloud. From here the ridge is truly epic. This is my Favourite Scramble of all times. Crossing the ridge head towards Carrauntohill and back down Heavenly Gates.
