    Returned to Mangerton as there are two Mangerton Mountains… not just the one. Mangerton North is not nearly as popular as her southern sister. Still, for a nice view of lake guitane, this is where one must go (pic 3). ...

    Torc Mountain. The climb is mostly on boardwalks (old railway sleepers) to protect the bog land. It’s not a big climb, but it’s unremitting. There are very few flat stretches to get your breath back. Fortunately, you hav...

    Dificult in poor visibility as navigation skills are required; It is not a demanding hike from the technical point of view. The last part of the loop, after crossing the lake at its lower end, is tedious and unpleasant a...
