Service Description

Level 3 – Summit Adventure Stand on the highest mountain in Wicklow. For experienced walkers looking for a real mountain day, this is the ultimate Wicklow adventure. Approaching from the quieter western side, we begin from a lesser-known start point and climb onto the ridge of Slievemaan before continuing towards Lugnaquilla’s broad summit.
