Hike to Carrauntoohil
A guided hike to the highest mountain in Ireland, Carrauntohill
About this event
Britton Outdoors is heading to Kerry!!! Join us on a challenging hike to the highest point in Ireland. It is a fully guided hike with two very experienced guides. Small groups sizes guaranteed.
The route will leave Cronins yard and head up to the Lakes before swinging right and climbing O Shea's gully to top out near the summit of Carrauntohil. The route down will be through heavenly gates and back to the lakes before joining the path back to Cronin's yard. While this is a spectacular walk it is a long hike and is classed as strenuous. If you are unsure about signing up for this please feel free to contact me before hand to have a chat.
