The All-Ireland Hillwalking Provinces Championship




​Does your province have what it takes to become an Irish hillwalking team champion? If so, we are delighted to offer you that chance. The All-Ireland Hillwalking Provinces Championship is the ultimate outdoor sports competition contested in the Irish uplands. It is free to enter and is open to all experienced hillwalkers.
 

Take part


For a chance to become a member of your province's Sport Hillwalking team, you must compete in the All-Ireland Hillwalking Championships as an individual (click here for participation instructions).

Winner selection


The following process is used to decide all province team placings in the All-Ireland Hillwalking Provinces Championship:
  1. All submitted Championship Entry Forms are checked in early November.
  2. Each competitor's overall individual score is tallied (i.e. Rounds 1 - 8 combined).
  3. Competitors are sorted into the provinces they are representing.
  4. Each province represented by 2 or more of individuals qualifies as a team in the All-Ireland Hillwalking Provinces Championship.
  5. The 5 highest individual scores from each province are added together to become that province's official team score.
  6. If a province team has 2 - 4 members, each of the 1 - 3 empty slots equates to an individual score of zero.
  7. Provinces are placed in order according to their overall team score, from the highest-scoring province to the lowest.
  8. The highest-scoring province team is the Champion.
  9. We aim to announce a full set of results across all categories in mid-November.
