Two wooden ladders cross the wall on the way to the Silver Muck mountain peak

A lovely small clearing with a few picnic tables and the Yellow Water river running beside it. The small car park is a good place to leave the car for one of the many walks in this area.

A steep but beautiful walk following the Yellow Water river.

Slieve Muck, meaning Pig Mountain) is 2,199 feet (670 m) high. The source of the River Bann is on its Northern slope. Under a certain light the stony side of the eastern slope seems to spell out 'poverty', leading to some locals calling it Poverty Mountain.

Hen Mountain is one of the less challenging climbs of the Mourne Mountain range, not to worry though, as it still provides the stunning panoramic views that the Mournes are so good at showcasing. There are a few rocky outcrops up here which can be discovered and explored, just do watch your footing as you move about.

Enjoy a stroll along this wild & beautiful landscape nestled at the foothills of Hen Mountain. If doing a back and forth to Hen Mountain, this is a great one to do with kids.

The ascent to Slieve Muck from the main road is quite a steep and punchy one. It's a great one to do if you want elevation, and quickly. From the top, you can marvel at the rugged beauty of the Mourne landscape, and, on a clear day, you might even catch a glimpse of the Irish Sea.
