"The Mournes are stunning. I'm just beginning to get to see them but hopefully next year will get out there more and get fitter. "
I would thoroughly recommend a walk within Tollymore Forest up to the Drinns; fabulous view of the Mournes up to Commedagh and Donard, which can be approached with Tollymore. And on a good day, a beautiful view over to the Isle of Man.
Some lovely quiet spots up at The Drinns for picnics, taking in the views and contemplation.
The tracks with Tollymore are tough and trainers would not be recommended; boots with two pairs of thin socks protect ankles and prevent blisters.
It is possible to walk with Tollymore all day and not walk the same path twice in the same direction.
Maps are available on the net; google maps or Bing enables route planning in advance.
Parking within Tollymore is very safe unlike parking places around Mournes which can be very risky for damage to vehicles, thefts, etc. |

There's some lovely walks in the Sleive Blooms; at Glenbarrow, near Rosenalis, up to the Iron Man, at Castletown, just outside Kinnitty and Monicknew, above Clonaslee, which is also a great spot for a night time ride;)
Not the most dramatic mountains in Ireland but beautiful nonetheless. |

Yeah I didn't do it because it was so expensive. Think it was €250 (or maybe $) for an overnight hike
I did another hike near Kuching that was a proper jungle sweat fest! |

I spend most of the winter in the wicklow mountains or the slieve blooms, but I go for more than the hike. Hunting these hills in pursuit of deer and packing or dragging them out keeps me fit and freezer stocked full of tasty healthy venison ?? |

Walking for me is pure therapy; a fantastic way to build up a sweat and simultaneously put life into perspective, sort out problems and return to my car rejuvenated, refreshed, reinvigorated and ready for a shower and relaxation.  |

"Love walking in the Wicklow mountains, I need to get out more in 2022!!"
I'm the same. From Kerry but living in Meath and have enjoyed finding my way round Wicklow. A route around Glendalough is my favourite one.
I joined Hiking Buddies Ireland on Facebook, it might be of some use to you |

"Is it worth paying for the pro version of alltrails? Was thinking of doing benbaun, might be handy I suppose if you want to download the route. "
It depends if you have signal or not on that mountain.. I've the free version and I've been caught out a few times.. If you lose signal you lose GPS so it can be difficult to navigate if the trail is not well defined just be mindful of that.. Its personal choice good luck |

I think it's 30 euro a year if not mistaken.. Good thing about that is you can download maps for offline use so you'll never get lost |

I recommend a decent pair of boots.. I use the steel toes I get at work as they have a reinforced sole.. Great support.. Don't bother with runners you're feet will ache for days if you hike in them.. Also get waterproofs.. Trousers and a mac can be got very cheap and are lightweight f carrying.. Trekking poles are great for climbing up and down hills as they take the pressure off your joints.. Knees and back will get a hammering o |

Yes. I use the paid version. It allows you download the map so you're not relying on phone signal all the time. It also gives you "off route alerts" when you wander off the trail.
Some of the trails they have listed aren't particularly visible so it's very useful. |

Bring a power bank as well though. When you lose mobile signal your battery gets eaten very quickly. |

"The Lough Ouler loop in Wicklow, it’s a heart shaped lake  "
Tonelegee... Stunningly beautiful if you get the visibility. Its very wet at this time of the year though and crossing the river at the start and end can be tricky after rain. I arrived back down a couple of months ago on a really wet day only to discover that the river had risen in the time I was walking. I had to head off upstream to get across. Waterproof boots are the bare minimum you need for it but it's beautiful when you get above the lake. |

Coumshingaun Lough Loop is a favourite of ours. Views are spectacular. Not a family friendly route though, tough in places.
One thing we've noticed aloy in recent months is discarded masks along most trails we've been on. Taking gloves and bag next time to pick them up. |
