    Guided Ascent of Carrauntoohil, Ireland's highest mountain: When you make an ascent with us you will not just be tagging along – we will share a wealth of historical, geological and natural history which these mountains have in abundance. We are very passionate about this area and it shows. Guests ages 16 and up can attend. It is worth mentioning before you proceed that any ascent of Ireland's highest mountain should only be undertaken if you feel you have the required level of fitness. You will be hiking over tough strenuous mountain terrain that does not have trails for at least 6 hours. The route is over 11 kmtrs long and within that there is 1000mtrs of ascent and decent! We have found that people have previously underestimated the climb so it is necessary to state this. Waterproof / windproof jacket and over trousers ( breathable fabric recommended but not essential ) Comfortable Clothing NO JEANS / DENIM Hiking Boots Fluid Packed Lunch Back Pack ( essential ) Spare Fleece / Warm Layer for the summit

Joined a group as a solo hiker with Piaras as our guide ascending via the Brother O' Shea's Gully route. Having Piaras as our guide makes the climb very enjoyable as he looks after the navigation so you can focus on taking in the views. He also brought us down via "The Heavenly Gates" which was a surprise bonus for our group as the views were something else and the scrambling was great fun. Great day had overall thanks to the expertise of all at Kerry Climbing.
