Title:

Mountain Walking in Ireland

Description:

Ireland is not famous for high mountains, and in fact the tallest mountain in Ireland stands just over 1000m high. Compared to other countries, this might seem a paltry figure, but Ireland has a lot to offer mountain walkers who visit Ireland. Below I look at the highest mountains in each of the four provinces in Ireland. Carrauntoohil (Corran Tuathail in Irish), Co Kerry which forms part of MacGillycuddy's Reeks stands at 1039 meters high and is not just the tallest mountain in Munster, but also the tallest mountain in Ireland. The views from top of this mountain are spectacular, looking out over Hags Glen and Co. This is not the safest mountain in Ireland to climb. Most people climb the mountain via the Devil's Ladder which can only be described as dangerous. The Devil's Ladder is made up of loose rocks and rises at a steep angle. – PowerPoint PPT presentation

Title: Mountain Walking in Ireland


1
  • Once you reach the top of the Devil's Ladder,
    there is a further stretch to climb to the peak
    of the mountain which is marked by a cross.
    Mweelrea (Cnoc Maol Réidh, bald grey hill in
    Irish) is the tallest mountain in Connaught,
    standing just over 800 meters. It is situated
    beside the coastline of Mayo which is famous for
    its beauty. From the top of the mountain you look
    over Clew Bay and the numerous Islands that
    litter the seascape. Often described as one of
    the great walks in Ireland, Mweelrea is a
    difficult mountain that asks many questions of
    those who climb it.
