What a lovely idea for the CHA, I thought. Climb all the highest points in each of the counties in Ireland. It crosses all borders, it covers all corners of Ireland, it covers all grades of walks and it would appeal to like-minded people – members of the CHA - people who like to walk in the countryside. What fun!
26 pins in the map due to proximity of Sligo & Leitrim
There is a list of 27 hill tops, as there are some counties that share the same summit e.g. Mount Leinster is in both Co Carlow and Co Wexford. The A Walkers will endeavour to climb the 27 tops over 2/3 years as some of the walks will require an overnight stay. Hopefully members who are familiar with a county might take on the challenge of leading a walk in that county. All grades of CHA walkers are invited to use this list to participate in either organising or leading a walk within their grade.
It is all for a bit of fun and adventure. Everyone likes to try something new and hopefully this will add some new challenging and interesting walks to the CHA repertoire.
List of 32 CHP plus progress sheet available on the members section of the CHA website.
