THE UK.
IT IS LOCATED IN THE GRAMPIAN MOUNTAINS (ALSO GRAMPIANS), WHICH

11. HIKING TRAILS
THE MOUNTAIN TRAIL (GERMAN “HÖHENWEG”)
THE MOUNTAIN TRAIL IS NOT ONLY THE OLDEST, MARKED TRAIL IN THE
FICHTEL MOUNTAINS, BUT ALSO THE MOST INTERESTING.
IT RUNS, FOLLOWING THE MOUNTAIN HORSESHOE, OVER THE MOST
IMPORTANT MOUNTAIN PEAKS OF THE FICHTELGEBIRGE. DURING THE
RIDGE WALK YOU WILL ENCOUNTER THE NATURAL MONUMENTS THAT ARE
SO TYPICAL OF THIS LOW MOUNTAIN RANGE: ROCK TOWERS TOWERING
OVER THE HIGH FOREST AND GRANITE BOULDERS IN THE SUMMIT AREAS.
THE EXTREMELY VARIED NATURE OF THE ROUTE AND THE SIGHTS AND
SIGNIFICANT LANDMARKS OF THE FICHTELGEBIRGE LYING DIRECTLY ON
THE WAY MAKE THE HÖHENWEG AN EXPERIENCE FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY.

CARRAUNTOOHIL, ALSO CARRANTUOHILL (IRISH CORRÁN TUATHAIL), IS
SPECIFIED AT 1039 TO 1041 M AT PEAK HEIGHT AND IS THE HIGHEST
MOUNTAIN OF IRELAND.
ALTHOUGH THIS IS EVEN LOWER THAN THE HIGHEST PEAK OF THE FICHTEL
MOUNTAINS, BUT IT MUST BE REMEMBERED THAT MY STARTING POINT FOR
THIS HIKING TRIP IS ALMOST AT SEA LEVEL (30 M).
YESTERDAY I WAS HIKING THROUGH THE KILLARNEY NATIONAL PARK AND
OVER 40 KMS.
