West Coast of Ireland

<< < (5/5)

chillax:
Donegal also worth a mention. Seems like lots of people go sea kayaking around the islands (Gola, Owey, Arranmore etc.) Couple of lovely compact bouldering spots like Carrickfin beach, Polldo Glen and Muckross Head (tricky to find in good nick). Great trad if thats your bag. Roundy orange granite, a bit like cornwall. Great sandstone roofs in Muckross. Great pubs, beautiful stark landscape. The sport on Inis Mór might be of interest too, and obviously trad at Ailladie.

A bouldering trip over here taking in the Mournes, Fair Head, Donegal, Doolin, Kerry (whatever they get up to down there, been climbing in Ireland for 17 years, went down there once and found it to be an utter pain in the tits), Waterford (Coumshingaun and Larry The Goat's), and Wicklow would be mega. Access doesn't feel as dire as JB makes it out, but there are substantial issues. Majority of documented popular spots are absolutely fine, discounting Kerry but they do things differently down there
