Best Hikes to Torc Mountain
Tips
  • The summit is easy to reach, as long stretches of the ascent are covered with wooden floorboards. The view becomes more beautiful with every meter of altitude.

  • The climb is well worth it and can be done without great equipment. The paths are non-slip. Only towards the end it gets a bit rocky.

  • You should have good shoes and weatherproof clothing with you. The wind can be strong at the top, although there is almost no wind at the bottom. It's sometimes steep over rocks and well-developed over wire-covered wooden planks to the summit.
    Weather permitting, you have a great view of the surrounding hills and lakes of Killarney National Park from the top.

  • The path consists of sections made of wooden planks and in other places of rocky ground. A few hiking sticks would have been helpful here and there but not absolutely necessary.
