About Bohilbreaga

Rising above the village of Moneyneany in the eastern Sperrins, this 478-metre summit offers a quiet, peat-heavy ascent. It is a Tump defined by its isolation and expansive moorland character. Walkers can expect rough, pathless terrain that yields open views across the Glenelly Valley toward the higher peak of Mullaghaneany.

Did You Know?

  • •The name likely derives from the Irish Buachaill Bréige, meaning 'false boy.' This term was traditionally applied to a standing stone or a prominent summit cairn that, when viewed from a distance or through mist, resembled the silhouette of a person.
  • •From the summit, the view stretches southward across the Moyola Valley to the distinctive, flat-topped profile of Slieve Gallion and eastwards towards the basalt escarpments of the Antrim Hills.
  • •As with much of the central Sperrin range, the ground is characterized by thick blanket bog; it is the kind of landscape where the quality of your gaiters is tested far more than your navigational flair.
