"Myself my brother in law & a friend took on Mount Galtymore , We wasted a lot of time initially getting there . There are few different access points to the base of the Galtee's . So we made a decision to take no breaks till the summit . Heavy winds & Rain on the way up so we had a nice Battle with the mountain , Beautiful views of the lakes & Scenery from the top . Just barely had enough diesel to get into Mitchelstown over all the mountain driving . A great Day , A great hike ." — Mark-Mountain-Sheehan • Oct 2, 2021

"I've climbed Galtymore multiple times. One of these times was in June 2021 and that was the first time I managed to bring my partner from Tipperary to the top of his county. We started from the Car Park Galtymore North and first climbed Slievecushnabinnia, then Galtymore and lastly Galtybeg. We descended before Cush so didn't do the full loop this time. This walk was 14 km with 950 metres of ascent or so." — hannahaapio • Jun 12, 2021

"To get to the top of Galtymore I highly recommend following the proper trail if you park at the Galtymore North car park. The start of the trail is about half a mile up the road leading to Coolmain, marked by a "No Dogs" sign and some concrete steps on your left. I followed the road all the way to the end instead and went through the only gate without a "Keep Out" sign on it (I'd met a sheep farmer on the way up and asked if I could go that way). With Cush mountain far off to my left I could see Galty Beg and Galtymore in front of me, a large mound between them and a possible route up both. That mound is almost a mountain in its own right, at over 600m, and is the moraine for Lough Diheen. The best thing about being so far off the beaten track was getting to the top of the moraine and walking down the other side to see Lough Diheen up close. The echo off the cliff faces and around the bowl was impressive, with a couple of crows flying high up sounding unlike their usual coarse selves as their caws reverberated all around. I stood there looking up at Galty Beg on my left and Galtymore on my right and trying to judge which would be an easier ascent but there wasn’t much to dist..." — IDC • Sep 15, 2019

"Solo. From a point near Ballygeana. I walked up N ridge (slightly to west of Lough Curra) to Galtymore Mountain. There are two high points, each with a fairly large stone cairn. It is difficult to say which is highest although eastern one has a cross below it and a separate wooden post on it. Frost crystals 2 feet long on cross (horizontal). It was a clear day but very cold with a biting wind. There was frost at all levels. There were a few small snow patches on the highest parts." — peter43 • Jan 28, 1987
