Mountain Log Summer 2025

6 We l come training, now’s a great time to get involved. And if you or someone you know is new to hiking, our Happy Hiking programme is the perfect way to start. We’ve also been busy behind the scenes, working on access issues across the island to make sure everyone can continue to enjoy our beautiful outdoors. A special shoutout to those who joined us for the Mountain Environment Weekend in Wicklow. It was a weekend full of learning, inspiring talks and a deeper appreciation for our natural world. Congratulations to all who participated in the recent Irish Bouldering and Lead Climbing Championships; both were tremendous successes, showcasing great talent and dedication. Finally, we wish you a safe and productive summer, wherever it takes you. As always, we are here if you or your club need any assistance or guidance along the way.
