    Hi all,

    Anyone know much about this mountain?

    It's 700m. I'm thinking of parking the car at Delphi Lodge and walking to top of Ben Gorm and across to Ben Creggan South and Ben Creggan.

    Is it a difficult day? Very boggy?

    I wouldn't be a hugely experienced climber in last few years. Have climbed Mweelrea, Croagh Patrick, Devil's mother, Maumtrasna about 3 yrs ago and I'm fit enough for it.

    Thanks for any help

    for a shorter loop, start at the parking spot near Aasleagh Falls (point A on the mountain views), up the side of the ridge to point O, loop around via the summit to point N then back to the staring point via point O. The fenced track up from the car park is the boggiest bit. Probably take about 4 hours
