Please note that access to the Zig Zags has been denied since March 2023 following an assault of the landowner - it is therefore not possible to access the mountains as shown in this video and an alternative route will be required.
The hike started from The Glenmalure Lodge and brought me on a 25km loop with great mountain views. The first leg was a 2km road walk towards the bridge over the Avonbeg River to access the Glenmlaure Zig Zags. Onwards from here, the first mountain peak reached was Cloghernagh. I continued in the direction of Lugnaquilla but with my late start I decided to veer left and head towards the ridge of Corrigasleggaun and Carrawaystick. These mountains form a backdrop to Kelly's Lough where I camped 2 months ago. I spent a lovely peaceful night in the tent and the sunrise was beautiful again. The next morning I made an early start in the direction of Craoghanmoira and Fananierin mountains. An early morning hike following a wild camp and with reduced water weight is always a highlight! I met a few early morning trail runners but mostly a very quiet route to take.
