Corrán Tuathail and high mountain challenges



Corrán Tuathail is Ireland's highest peak and attracts people from all over the world to climb to it's lofty summit. On a fine day your views will extend to the far away mountains, lakes, farmlands and ocean of the surrounding area for as far as a hundred miles. It's a magnificent, rugged, scenic mountain to climb and an experience that one doesn't forget. We have over 8 different routes to climb this mountain and grades that suit beginner to the most experienced mountaineer throughout the year.

We organise Corrán Tuathail Challenges for individuals, clubs, charities and companies. We also run four and five peak challenges in Ireland, England, Wales and Scotland.

Fitness Assessment



These training adventure weekends are geared for those wishing to have an enjoyable and challenging time amongst Ireland's highest and most spectacular mountains. They will also simulate some of the conditions that one may find on treks in the Alps, the Andes and on expeditions like Kilimanjaro, Island Peak, Aconcagua or other trekking peaks around the world that requires stamina or alpine starts, but at a lower altitude. This weekend is an ideal way to assess your fitness level on the mountains as well as having a great weekend in Kerry.

These are courses that we run to suit individual needs. They are for climbers that would like to enhance their skills on camp craft, scrambling, rock-climbing, fix rope and jumaring techniques, general rope-work techniques, crevasse rescue techniques, the use of ice axe and crampons and also deal with the psychology of climbing big mountains.
