A Beast
Mweelrea Mountain, rising like a verdant titan in County Mayo, reigns supreme as Connacht's crown jewel. Soaring 814 meters, its quartzite peak pierces the heavens, casting a majestic shadow over the Nephin Beg range. Lush emerald slopes, sprinkled with heather and wildflowers, surrender to rugged cliffs and scree as they ascend towards the summit. From this lofty throne, panoramic vistas unfurl, painting a breathtaking tapestry of sparkling Loughs Mask and Corrib, rolling Connemara hills, and the Twelve Bens piercing the distance. Mweelrea's challenging terrain beckons experienced hikers and climbers, while its soul-stirring beauty lures artists and photographers. Whether you seek an invigorating escape or a heart-pounding adventure, Mweelrea promises an unforgettable Irish odyssey.
