Ireland's Essential High Points
An Essential High Point is any of the twenty "must visit" summits in Ireland. This original list compiled by Kieron Gribbon was first published on 12th September 2017 and is a secondary sub-list of the official list of Ireland's major geographical High Points. These 20 High Point locations have been selected based on their views and aesthetic characteristics. Whether you're a local or a visitor from overseas, a hill walking tour of the Essential High Points would be the perfect choice for an activity holiday in Ireland.
