Beenkeragh

* Freedom to roam

BEENKERAGH

Often called 'the gate-keeper to Carrauntoohil', Beenkeragh is Ireland's second highest mountain at 1,008m.

Ridgewalk challenge

All three of Ireland's highest peaks can be bagged on the challenging Coomloughra Horseshoe ridgewalk that takes in Carrauntoohil, Beenkeragh, and Caher.

Carrauntoohill link

Beenkeragh is joined to Ireland's highest mountain by the narrow Beenkeragh Ridge, which has another summit The Bones (957m) in the middle.

Summit climb

The summit can also be reached by ascending the 650m Hag's Tooth, a large rock formation, and the steep and rocky Hag's Tooth Ridge.

Amazing views

The Coomloughra Valley, Carrauntoohill's intimidating north face, the Dingle Peninsula and Kenmare Bay can all be seen from Beenkeragh on a clear day.
