This is a challenging there-and-back hike to ascend Mount Brandon, initially following along the Faha Ridge not far from Cloghane. The track is steep and follows a rocky and grassy footpath. Shortly after starting walking, hikers will pass the Faha Grotto. Closer to the summit, the trail passes a lake. The views throughout are spectacular with rising peaks, coastline cliffs and distant open plains.
