Conavalla (Irish: Ceann an Bhealaigh, meaning "head of the road or pass")[2] at 734 metres (2,408 ft), is the 69th–highest peak in Ireland on the Arderin scale,[3] and the 85th–highest peak on the Vandeleur-Lynam scale.[4][5] The summit of Conavalla sits just off the main "central spine" of the Wicklow mountains range in Ireland, as it runs from Kippure in the north, to Lugnaquillia in the south.[6][5] Conavalla's large massif to the north-east is described as a "wet and boggy barren plain" whose various shoulders dominate the head of the Glendalough valley, and the upper east-side of the Glenmalure valley.[6][5]
