Tullybrack [Reyfad] [Tulaigh Bhreac]

Overlooking the rugged limestone plateaus near Derrygonnelly, this unassuming Marilyn marks a significant high point in the Fermanagh uplands. Its peat-scarred summit provides an excellent vantage point for surveying the island-studded waters of Lower Lough Erne and the distant, dark profile of Cuilcagh to the south.

• •The name is derived from the Irish Tulaigh Bhreac, meaning "speckled hill," likely referring to the mix of heather, grasses, and limestone outcrops that give the slopes a mottled texture.
• •It is often referred to locally as Reyfad (Ráth Fada or "long fort"), a name shared with the nearby Reyfad Pot, one of the deepest and most challenging cave systems in Ireland.
• •From the summit trig pillar, the view spans across the Erne basin to the Sperrins in the north, while the distinctive flat-topped Benwiskin and the Sligo mountains are visible to the west.
• •The "speckled" nature of the hill is best appreciated in late summer when the purple bell heather contrasts against the grey limestone and dark peat hags.
• •While the climb is technically straightforward, the terrain is a masterclass in Fermanagh bog; a successful ascent often depends more on your choice of gaiters than your level of fitness.
