    Starting out from Maumeen Carpark. Taking in Binn Chaonaigh, Binn Mhairg, and on to Barrslievenaroy. Doing the route in this way meant we were treated to great and different views throughout. Not too strenous.

    There is a path along the tops but coming down was a bit dodgy. A good walk with great views.
