This 7.5km walk incorpoates three peaks, Meelin, Brackloon and Knockafeehane. It forms part of the Dingle Way and is No1 of Annascaul Loop Walks. Follow the Dingle Way (towards Inch) for 2km. Cross the stile on the right hand side of the road and proceed up the sheep pasture to another stile which leads to the open heath. The rocky outcrop (301m) marks the eastern extremity of the ridge. Take in the views to the east of Inch and Castlemaine harbour, to the south to Rossbeigh and Glenbeigh, to the north to Beenoskee and Stradbally mountains and west to Mount Eagle and Brandon mountains.

The track leads west by south west almost parallel to the sea along the ridge following the way marker posts towards Brackloon (270m). On reaching the last peak Meelin (270m) the ground drops steeply on three sides. Walk downward veering left and then right following the path to the wire fence.

Following the fence carefully descend to the stile at the end of the path. Follow the steps down to the main Annascaul/Inch road (R561). Turn right towards Annascaul and take the second turn to the right onto the Ardrinane road and back to the village.
