About This Blog

This blog is intended to be an account of my efforts to climb the 'Dillons', Ireland's mountains over 2,000 feet of which there are 200 and those over 3,000 feet of which there are 12.

These mountains were categorised in 'The Mountains of Ireland' by Paddy Dillon, a book that is something of a bible to hillwalkers. This blog provides some limited info on the mountains I have climbed and where possible, I've included brief details of the routes I have used.

I will also include a few mountains outside of that list that are also worthy of climbing.

I highly recommend the excellent Mountain Views Website as a source of more detailed info on these mountains.
