The narrow ridge path between Carrantuohill and Beenkeragh is also called "The Bones". The rocky path is only for experienced mountain hikers. There are several places where you need to use your hands to help you move forward.

Beenkeragh Ridge is spectacular and is known as "Ireland's most intimidating hill walk". Enjoy it but come highly prepared. Not for amateurs......

Coming from Beenkeragh, there is an easy "right" bypass at almost all climbing spots. At the most difficult spot, this is missing; instead, there is a left path, which is very exposed and can be very dangerous in bad conditions. There is also a risk of ending up on a sheep path in the steepest terrain. I and local mountain guides recommend climbing over here instead of bypassing. If you want the best views and the most beautiful mountain experience, you can consistently follow the entire ridge over the blocks if you are fit for heights and have some climbing experience.
