The goal in this challenge is to visit 50 of Ireland's 355 Sport Hillwalking locations within a single calendar year. Logged visits to any of the 209 mountain summits and 187 major geographical High Points in Ireland can count towards a participant's annual total. Each location only counts once in this challenge. Participants can choose to visit mountain summits only, High Points only or a combination of both. This unique annual hillwalking challenge starts on 1st January each year and runs right through to 31st December.
