Dungarvan was one of my favourite scrambles of the summer. The approach through the colourful Lost Creek canyon was a lot of fun with a lot of rock hopping. Once up on the ridge, there was a lot of hands-on scrambling to be had. On descent, we followed the scree down to the valley, rather than returning via the ridge.
