From the path between the two western peaks of Sugarloaf mountain, the Far West Top and the West Top, there is a wonderful across Bantry Bay. It can be pretty exposed up here so be sure to bring layers and a waterproof, even on what look like sunny days.

Hiking
This is the 1,840-foot (560m) high point of the Beara Way long-distance trail, as it makes its way across the rugged Sugarloaf Mountain. The mountain's shapely main peak rises to the east of here, at 1883 feet (574m). Its pointed shape and accessibility from Glengarriff make it one of the better known summits in the Caha Mountains.
