Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We attended to celebrate a family birthday for meal and drinks. Menu options were great and suited all young and old, any requests were happily accommodated. Food was lovely staff were great but Bug Shout out for the gorgeous Louise who took our booking, helped sort balloons and cake and made sure that we were very well looked after. Will definitely return thank you x

This was a beautiful hike. I started in the dark by myself at 6am with a strong headlamp. The new path is awesome, a lot of hard work went into constructing it and these workers did one a Hell of a job. I wore running sneakers and didn't even get my feet wet once.

The first part is like walking on a compressed gravel path that gradually goes up. To the sides of you are bogs with streams running through them. It must've been a tough, muddy climb before this path went in. As you ascend, it levels off here and there and you will have to hop from rock to rock to avoid puddles. Eventually it starts a climb like stair treads in the rocks. A couple of false peaks before you hit the top.

Overall an excellent climb. I started at 6am and was back down before 8:30am and I stayed at the top to take photos for a bit. I climbed early morning in late September and wore a puff style jacket at the summit and a thin fleece under it that I wore most of the way, a winter hat and very thin gloves.

Really enjoyed the climb. The new path that has been put in across the bog at the start and also most of the way up to the top makes it a much better experience than before.

You still get the thrill at the top of the wonderful view and also the "one man's path" as the highlight.

We are relatively fit and took us about 2 hours to get up and down with plenty of breaks to take in the views

The new paths up the mountain are great and will definitely help keep walkers off the peatland before you get to the mountain. The floura and fauna will be protected by the great work done on improving the paths up the mountain.

First time hike for myself although my partner is a fan!! ...I had kitted myself out with some hiking boots, walking poles and layers recommended by previous experienced walkers...as everyone notes the first 30 mins was tough going through boglnd which involved choosing your steps very carefully to avoid being sucked into the wet bog!!!
Once we had managed to get through that stage it was o to the slippery shale which provided its own set of challenges ...was it tough ...yes ...was it worth it ..100%...we had lunch 751metres above and the views were amazing ...photos really do not do it justice when you see those views for yourself!!!.

Took us over 5 hours from start to finish and we loved every minute of the experience. Weather can be unpredictable so bring a rain coat and sunglasses

The climb itself starts going through bogland so wear appropriate footwear. You then climb a rocky/stoney surface. The wind is very strong on the mountain but its all worth it. The views at the top are sensational.

Breathtaking views for 360 degrees. We climbed this the end of June 2020 and the atmosphere was fun and jovial with loads of climbers and good humour and conversation on both ascent and decent.

Not nearly as intimidating as I thought it was going to be! I travelled with Awaken Adventures in Letterkenny. A great team!
