About Galtymore
Galtymore is the high point of the Galtees, the long east-west ridge between the Glen of Aherlow and the Mitchelstown valley. The north face drops in steep slopes to corrie lakes, while the southern side is long, grassy and gentle. Galtybeg lies 1.2 km east and Carrignabinnia 2.8 km west along the ridge. It is a county top, a Furth, a Hewitt, a Marilyn, an Arderin and a Vandeleur-Lynam.
The most-used route is the Black Road, a track that climbs from the south side near Skeheenarinky onto open hillside and up to the col between Galtymore and Galtybeg. A path then climbs to the summit. Walkers on the full Galtee ridge reach it from the east or west.
The summit holds a cross and a cairn. From the top you look over the Glen of Aherlow to the north.
