Mahanaboe [An Bhanog Thuaidh North Top]

Situated on the rugged eastern ridges of the Dingle Peninsula, this Tump offers a quieter alternative to the more frequented central massifs. The terrain is typical of the Kerry uplands—tussocky and peat-heavy. Its position provides clear, sharp views across the wind-scoured slopes toward the Slieve Mish Mountains to the east.

• •The name An Bhanóg Thuaidh translates from Irish as the 'Northern Green Patch', likely referring to a specific area of grazing land that stood out against the darker heath of the surrounding slopes.
• •It forms a northern shoulder to the higher ground of Croaghskearda and is usually climbed as part of a longer ridge walk overlooking the deep, glacial trough of the Annascaul valley.
• •The summit offers a clear perspective on the geography of the peninsula, with the long, pale curve of Inch Strand visible to the southeast against the waters of Dingle Bay.
• •Its status as a Tump guarantees just enough of a drop on all sides to make you work for the summit, regardless of which direction you approach from.
