Agow Top

Sitting in the undulating high ground of County Leitrim, this 423m Tump is defined by its wild, heathery plateau and peat hags. It offers a remote sense of isolation with expansive views southward across Lough Allen toward the Iron Mountains, rewarding hikers who value grit and navigation over groomed trails.

• •The name is likely a phonetic version of the Irish Achadh, meaning a field or meadow, hinting at the hill's history as high summer grazing ground for local livestock.
• •Looking south from the summit, the view is dominated by the full length of Lough Allen, while the distinctive plateau of Cuilcagh is often visible to the northeast.
• •The terrain is notoriously soft underfoot; a local walker might suggest the hill hasn't truly been climbed unless you return with at least one boot full of Leitrim bog water.
