100% recommend this short hike if you're tight on time, but would like to get beautiful views, go for an incredible wild swim in the mountains, acclimatise ahead of the TMB, or a stop off on the way to the top of Aiguille du Midi. The water is FRESH! So one for experienced cold water swimmers only.

Starting from Trassey Track car park, a circular route with incredible views and summitting two of the highest mountains in the range. On a clear day, the views are unreal! Going over the stile at Hare's Gap is one if my favourites in the Mournes. A springboard for many routes through the mountains

Beautiful coastal path to walk or cycle from Crawfordsburn Country Park to Bangor. Would recommend to people of all ages. If you like to swim, pack a swimsuit and towel, you'll pass a number of swim spots along the way. Great route for kids with plenty of beach stop offs, river crossings&there are cafes

My favourite loop in Crawfordsburn Country Park. It takes you up to the high, wildflower meadows and away from the crowds at the beach on busy days. Beautiful view across the lough and even towards Scotland on good days. Route includes a mix of woodland and beach sections.

Croaghaun (Cruachán) is a mountain on Achill Island in Mayo. At 668m it has the highest sea cliffs in Ireland, or third highest in Europe.



We started from the iconic Keem Bay. It's a challenging hike, so recommend a good level of fitness with a few steep inclines.



It's more common for cloud to be covering
