What is Pick a Peak?
It's a fun and novel hill-walk that will have teams on top of peaks all over Ireland! This unique challenge is designed for people of all ages and fitness abilities - just pick the peak that's best for you and your family or friends and climb it on Saturday July 11th.
We have put together a list of over 50 peaks to choose from, or choose your own. It's not only a great reason to get out and enjoy Ireland's landscape but all funds raised go towards providing services for children and young people with arthritis in your community.
