Description

A highly challenging route taking in 7 of the 10 highest mountains in the Mournes and Northern Ireland, by following the historic Mourne wall. The summits include Slieve Binnian, Wee Binnian, Slievenaglogh, Slieve Muck, Carn Mountain, Slieve Loughshannagh, Slieve Meelbeg, Slieve Meelmore, Slieve Bearnagh, a more northerly Slievenaglogh, Slieve Commedagh and finally Slieve Donard (at 853m the highest mountain in Northern Ireland). 

The .GPX of the route included here is based on a start from Trassey car park, and avoids the short run along the road involved in the version on WalkNI.com.
