You should definately visit Donegal in Ireland. The Derryveagh Mountain range, Mount Errigal,The Poison Glenn, Muckish Mountain, The Blue Stacks...... They will all blow your mind!What are the best ridge walks in Scotland, England, Wales and Ireland?
Scotland - has to be the Cullin Ridge


England - Sharp Edge


Wales - The Triffen Traverse


Ireland - No Idea
Ireland has two greats in my opinion! Errigal in Donegal and the ultimate ridge walk, Benkeeragh to Carrantuohill in County Kerry.


If you ever get the chance do this one!!
Also try the along the brecon beacons, pen-y-fan, (especially if its clear day - i know unlikely but it does happen!) and not ardous but nice stretch along the black mountains and even gentler the malvern hills.





ire - Killarney mountains but then i havent really been anywhere else in ireland!!
Horseshoe pass is a lovely area.......
