Temple Hill B Walk
Galtee Walking Club
Combaun Woods
Sun, Nov 24, 10:00 AM
Sun, Nov 24, 2:00 PM
⛰️The Temple Hill "B" walk from Combaun Woods is a challenging but rewarding trek in the Galtee Mountains. It's a popular route for experienced hikers, offering stunning views and a sense of accomplishment⛰️
🌲The trailhead is located at Combaun Woods car park. The initial part of the hike follows a forest track, gradually ascending through the woods. As you gain elevation, the views start to open up, offering glimpses of the surrounding countryside🌲
🌄The trail eventually leads onto open mountainside, where the ascent becomes steeper. The final stretch to the summit of Temple Hill is particularly challenging, with loose rocks and exposed terrain. However, the effort is rewarded with panoramic views of the Galtee Mountains and the surrounding plains🌄
🥾The descent is a circular route back to Combaun Woods car park. It's important to be cautious on the descent, especially on the steeper sections🥾
