Not the highest climb around but it's a good challenge and provides great views over to Leinster Mountain on a clear day.

Landmark at the top of Black Mountain that can be a lifesaver if the Irish weather sets in. If you have to dive for refuge in the hut you'll likely find plenty of other adventurers doing the same!

At 794m high Mount Leinster is a tough challenge. A famous climb with a radio tower at the top, the view is exceptional (if the weather is clear). Well worth the climb to the top.

Well positioned bench with an amazing view. Stop on the way up (or on the way back down) Tara Hill.

Fun trail that loops around Tara Hill. There is a path up to the top for an awesome view but cycling isn't permitted so you'll have to dismount and walk up. The terrain is good so suitable for gravel or MTB.
