High Point sub-lists

Every location on the official full list of Ireland's Major Geographical High Points has earned its place by meeting the criteria for at least one of the eight primary sub-lists. Certain locations from the overall list have also been hand-picked for inclusion on twelve secondary sub-lists. Each of the 17 sub-lists below marked "KG" is an original compilation by Kieron Gribbon which was first published on the date shown and is an original standalone list in its own right. We mainly promote the primary sub-lists as hillwalking challenges for which we can issue Certificates of Completion upon request.
