Lyracappul, Mountain summit in County Limerick, Ireland.
Lyracappul rises to 825 meters above sea level, featuring a tall stone cairn at its peak and steep grassy slopes on its sides.

The name Ladhar an Chapaill comes from Irish Gaelic language, translating to 'fork of the horse' in English, reflecting Ireland's traditional naming practices.
