 The most straightforward route to climb Gaurran is via its sharp east spur at Lough Fee; the 5-kilometre 2.5-hour round trip uses the car-park at the distinctively roofed Creeragh Church, off the N59 road.Another recommended trail is the 9-kilometre 4-hour "Lettergesh Loop" or "Benchoona Horseshoe", that starts from Lettergesh Beach in the car-park at Carrickglass (L737 630), taking the path to Cloonagh (), and climbing a loop around Benchoona, Garraun, and Garraun South-West Top (or Altnagaighera) before returning via Cloonagh.Various other 8-10 kilometre 4-5 hour routes, take in the summit of Doughruagh, and the shores of Kylemore Lough and Pollacappul Lough, in a loop with Garraun and Altnagaighera.
