Mullaghcleevaun (from Irish Mullach Cliabháin, meaning "summit of the cradle")[3] is a mountain in County Wicklow, Republic of Ireland.
Geography
At 849 m (2,785 ft) tall, the mountain is the second highest of the Wicklow Mountains and the 20th highest in Ireland.[1]
Mullaghcleevaun is believed to have been named after the rounded depression near the summit, which has a small lake (Lough Cleevaun) inside it.[1] Mullaghcleevaun sits roughly in the middle of the Wicklow Mountains and 3 km west of the Military Road. The massif also includes the summit of Mullaghcleevaun East Top (795 m).[1]
Access to the summit
The most common ascent of the mountain is made via Black Hill from the carpark 3 km uphill from the small hillside town of Lacken. The hills of Wales can be seen on a clear day from the triangulation pillar on the summit.
