Descrizione dell'itinerario
Loop hike made in early March with a lot of snow on the summit of Lugnaquilla Mountain.
Start point: Baravore car park in Glenmalure. Take the Table track, turn left to Lugnaquilla peak and back to the car park through the steep rock-strewn Fraughan Rock Glen, just next to the Benleagh River.
The Table Track, which runs from the end of the Glenmalure Valley, rises to 694 metres altitude, and passes within a few hundred metres of the summit of Table Mountain.
Fraughan Rock is one of Wicklow’s finest landscape, the name given to this beautiful valley with many waterfalls.
Climbing Lugnaquilla from Glenmalure is the most scenic hike of the two we’re covering in this guide. This route is 17km long and will take you around 5-6 hours to complete. While not the easiest way of ascending Lugnaquilla, it is the most rewarding and takes in the best landscapes in the area.
The highest mountain in Ireland outside of County Kerry, Lugnaquilla Mountain is a mighty hike deep in the heart of the Wicklow Mountains.
Climbing Lugnaquilla Mountain isn’t straightforward and it isn’t safe for novice hikers looking for an adventure.
Lugnaquilla Mountain frequently gets wetter, windier and colder weather than its neighbours so it’s essential to prepare properly and check the weather forecast.
In fact, temperatures at the summit of Lugnaquilla can get as low as -15C with windchill! It’s also worth noting that a clear day in the Wicklow Mountains doesn’t mean a clear day on Lug.
