Lugnaquilla from Camara Hill, County Wicklow

Lugnaquilla

Lugnaquilla or Lugnaquillia, historically called Lugnaculliagh is a mountain in County Wicklow. It reaches 3,117 feet and is the highest peak of the Wicklow Mountains range, the highest in the province of Leinster, and the 13th highest peak in the island of Ireland. At such a height, Lugnaquilla is the only Furth Munro in the county, and one of only two in Ireland outside County Kerry.

The mountain's name is from the Irish Gaelic Log na Coille, meaning "Hollow of the Wood". It is affectionately known as "Lug".

Views, on a clear day, extend east across the Irish Sea to the hills of the Llŷn peninsula and mountains of Snowdonia in Caernarfonshire, and west to the mountains of Munster. (Read more)
