MacGillycuddy's Reeks

Ireland’s highest mountain range is home to the highest peak in the country, Carauntoohill, which sits at 1038m. Access to the Reeks is by Cronin’s yard, a rest stop for hikers that's been in use for hundreds of years.
Parking, toilets and wifi are provided, as well as space for camping and a small shop for refreshments.
Access for HGVs is not practical as you have to drive a few miles on a tight country lane so small vehicles would be recommended to get to Cronin’s yard.
