Situated less than 10 minutes outside Westport, it’s also known as Ireland’s Holy Mountain or if you really want to sound like a local it’s called ‘The Reek’. It’s a mountain not to be underestimated as it can be quite challenging but with all things in life, once you go at your own pace you’ll get there, and the views are well worth the hike. On a clear day the views of Clew Bay from the top are phenomenal and once you’re back down on level ground, a pint in Campbell’s is well deserved.

Croagh Patrick, nicknamed 'the Reek', is a mountain with a height of 764 m and an important site of pilgrimage in County Mayo, Ireland. The mountain has a pyramid-shaped peak and overlooks Clew Bay, rising above the village of Murrisk, several miles from Westport. It has long been seen as a holy mountain.

The Reek...totally worth the effort. Our top tip is the mountain can get very busy so if you like to climb in peace and quiet head up there very early to avoid the crowds. It's a 15 minute drive from town and takes approx three hours round trip if your fit. After your climb head to Bertra beach throw yourself in the sea and go grab some lunch at The Travern or skip the sea and have a well rewarded pint in Campbells pub.
