Ben Lugmore

[4][5] It is in a horseshoe-shaped massif that includes the slightly higher peak of Mweelrea at 814 metres (2,671 ft), the highest mountain in the Irish province of Connacht.[5] From a distance, Ben Lugmore's profile is that of a long and high sharp ridge, along which its various summits (main and subsidiary) are dotted.[4][5] The most direct route to the summit of Ben Lugmore is the 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) 3-hour round trip via the Lug More (or Irish: Coum Dubh) corrie and the valley of Glen Glencullin.[8][7] Ben Lugmore's high northeastern cliffs that form the upper headwall of the Lug More (or Irish: Coum Dubh) corrie (situated above The Ramp), are a noted rock-climbing venue with multi-pitch mountain rock-climbs with grades varying from Diff (D) to Moderate Severe (MS), and length ranging from 35–70 metres (115–230 ft).[16][17] The Lug More (or Irish: Coum Dubh) corrie also has a number of winter climbs, the most notable of which is Recession Gully (Grade II/III, 400 metres (1,300 ft)).
