ドラムナスカンフの絶景の山頂・トップ10

Reaching the summit of Slieve Donard feels like stepping into a small, timeless world. There, the stone tower and cairn stand quietly... a simple yet powerful landmark marking the peak of Northern Ireland’s highest mountain. This spot offers more than panoramic views across the Mournes, it anchors the moment, inviting you to pause and reflect on your journey.

On the summit of Slieve Meelmore stands a small stone shelter, a welcome spot to rest after the steady climb up. From here, the views stretch across the Mournes, with Slieve Bearnagh’s rocky tors dominating the skyline. The shelter gives hikers a place to pause, shielded from the wind, and enjoy the sweeping mountain scenery before continuing along the Mourne Wall.

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

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.

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.

Probably the best mountain to take kids up! Easy access, only 1 path and great views at the top!

The Mourne Wall leads to the summit and there, like Slieve Donard, is a tower probably built to give some shelter to the workmen who constructed the wall. Meelmore also has what appears to be an old stonemasons hut at J302285 with plenty of part cut stone on its periphery showing that Meelmore was likely another spot that materials were gathered for the Mourne Wall.
