The best way to access the Altikeeragh Reserve is to take the Burrenmore Rd at Downhill forest. Go along this road, take the next left on to the Ballywoodcock Rd. Travel along this road and go straight through the 4 way crossroads. Travel straight on for about a mile and take the right to the Ballyhackett view point. Travel to the end of this road where the reserve is sign posted.
