"Was about to lead a hiking group but ended up being a solo-adventure due to all participants jumping off because of an active yellow weather warning this weekend. Parked at the beautiful Baravore Carpark and started my hike at 9.00AM in the morning wading through the cold water of the flooded road (Pro tip:there is a footbridge 20 yards up the trail... no need tondo this lol). After roughly 2 hours passing a gorgeous waterfall and going through a beautiful untouched landscape I arrived on the summit where I met 4 other hikers all slurping a tea and trying to warm up. It was at this point when I realised maybe it was for the better I was by myself as it was freezing and hardly enjoyable duebto the cold/wet temps. I surely thought twice whether to check the map or not to keep my hands warm. :D On the way back I finished in a loop which forced me to wade through the river this time but was all in all an amazing day considering the winter conditions. Had a soup with a pint at the Glenmalure lodge which I highly recommend. Would definitely go for this loop again!" — BlueJeans • Nov 22, 2025
