SOMETHING THAT EVERYONE SHOULD EXPERIENCE IS A BEAUTIFUL SUNRISE HIKE THROUGH THE MOURNE’S - ‘MAGICAL’

CROAGH PATRICK ☘️⛰️🙏🏼
From the mountains in the east to the mountains in the west - we spent a fab few days in the beautiful countryside western Ireland and the town of Westport.
Climbing #croaghpatrick ‘Ireland’s Holy Mountain’ 772m above sea level. On 15th August after a fine Irish breakfast, we tied up our boots and set off on our climb. Maybe not in Ireland’s top 10 highest mountains but it was a pull all the same with quite a steep incline. We got a wonderful day of sunshine until the last 5/10 minutes of reaching the summit and the cute little chapel at the top when a heavy fog fell down for about a half hour or so.
On the way up & down we got chatting to men & women who from 2020 have been mending walk ways and constructing a new staircase (very similar to the steps beside the #mo#mournewalling up to the Slieve Donard) from the stones and rocks on the mountain side. It really has made it so much safer than the last time we climbed it - it was pure sheil and nearly a hands & knees job to get to the top.
This is a lovely climb on a good day with some of the most beautiful views of Clew Bay and the different small island that are dotted around the west coast of Ireland.
And if you like a wee pint of #gu#guinness something cold to drink or even a plate of irishstew - Campbell’s Pub at the foot of the mountain is well worth a visit. Its a traditional irish bar that is full of charter and plenty of good craic ☘️🍻
Finish the day with some cold water therapy at one of the most stunning beaches #ke#keelbeach #ach#achillislandy#mayoirelandthe#thedonardescaper#airbnbe#thedonardescapeontouru#touringirelands#discoverirelands#visitirelands#discovernorthernirelands#visitnorthernirelandu#touringtheweste#irelandsholymountaine#clewbaym#campbellspubk#makingmemoriesm#familyholidayu#mournemountainsr#murrisk
