Carrauntoohil Night Ascent!


This August 22nd or November 14th, join experienced and qualified mountaineering guides from Outdoors Ireland for an exciting night-time ascent of Carrauntoohil, Ireland's highest mountain!

After the success of the Summer Solstice Night Hike in June, we have decided to team up with Ireland’s leading African education charity, Link Community Development, so you can not only undertake this brilliant night hike, but support education in Africa too.

Make an exciting and unique night ascent of Carrauntoohil, in darkness with head torches and guides. Stand on the summit of Ireland's highest mountain at dawn to savour the early morning calm and (hopefully) sunrise over the MacGillycuddy Reeks. After descending Carrauntoohil in the dawn light, enjoy a huge freshly cooked breakfast in Killarney. Food never tasted this good!

Link Community Development can offer supporters the chance to participate in this exciting event, free of charge; fundraisers who collect a minimum of €350 sponsorship will be reimbursed their €85 registration fee!

To find out more, please email info@lcd.ie with the subject "Carrauntoohil", call +353 (0)1 284 1414 or text "Carrauntoohil" to +353 (0)87 969 7623.

All participants receive a free sponsorship pack, including a free LCD t-shirt!

  1. Hi!
    Stiofainin here from the charity, Link Community Development! Thanks so much to Nathan and Outdoors Ireland for getting involved in supporting our charity through this really exciting Night Hike!

    LCD has been working to improve education in Africa for 20 years now, but we've only been in Ireland for less than 3 years and we need all the support we can get!
    So if you're interested in this brilliant Night Hike of Carrauntoohil, then please consider doing it as a fundraiser for our work - and your registration fee will be covered!

    Many thanks!
    Stiofainin
