I HIKED IRELAND STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN CUILCAGH MOUNTAIN FERMANAGH

- In this video I hike to the Stairway to Heaven in Fermanagh, you'll find County Fermanagh in the south-west corner of Ireland, south of County Tyrone and west of County Armagh. The county is wrapped around Upper and Lower Lough Erne, with Enniskillen, its largest town, set right in the centre, Cuilcagh Mountain is one of the largest expanses of blanket bog in Northern Ireland can be traversed thanks to a one-mile boardwalk that opened in 2015. Locals call it the Stairway to Heaven - and when you’ve hiked it for yourself, you’ll see why. There’s a steep climb to reach the 2,185ft summit of Cuilcagh Mountain. It’s located in an area with a unique habitat and forms part of the Marble Arch Caves UNESCO Global Geopark, so be sure to spend some time in the nearby caves if you get a chance, the route meanders through one of the largest expanses of blanket bog in Ireland, traversing over tracks, boardwalk and staircase. A steep climb is required to reach the viewing platform on Cuilcagh Mountain which provides breath taking views of the surrounding low lands across towns such as Belcoo, Blacklion & Florencecourt. Cuilcagh (from Irish: Binn Chuilceach, meaning 'chalky peak' is a mountain on the border between County Fermanagh (in Northern Ireland) and County Cavan (in the Republic of Ireland). With a height of 665 metres (2,182 ft) it is the highest point in both counties. It is also the 170th highest peak on the island of Ireland, and Ireland's only cross-border county top. Water from the southern slope flows underground until it emerges some miles away in the Shannon Pot, the traditional source of the River Shannon. The area is sometimes referred to as the Cuilcagh Mountains.I highly recommend staying in Enniskillen if you plan to visit Cuilcagh as it's around a 15 min drive from the town and a great way to discover Ireland, Cuilcagh Legnabrocky Trail is one of the top 10 most scenic hikes in Ireland alongside Ballycotton Cliff Walk, Cork, Divis and the Black Mountain ridge trail, Belfast, Slieve Gullion, Co Armagh and The Causeway Coast, Co Antrim
How long does it take to walk the Cuilcagh Boardwalk?
The Cuilcagh Boardwalk is approximately 11km and takes on average 2-3 hours to walk.
Is Cuilcagh Boardwalk difficult?
It is rated as 'difficult' in the mountain walk guides, so be prepared for a good hike whenever you get there.
Is Cuilcagh boardwalk free?
This car park is located a further 0.7 miles/1 km past the entrance for the Cuilcagh Boardwalk Trail. This car park is £5.00

Great vlog Dwayne, good to see you back. What a cracking walk. Never been to Ireland but that view and scenery is stunning. Happy new year from Glasgow.
Glad you enjoyed it, happy New Year to you too
Thank you for sharing this. I hope to get up there one day for my niece Yasmin in heaven. It's probably the closest I'll get to her. I'd like to plant a yellow winter jasmine plant in her memory 🌻🙏❤️
I'm viewing this from Limerick, Ireland 🍀
Happy & safe travels Dwayne ☺️
That's nice of you, yes it would be nice to meb leave a little pop at the top somewhere, don't know what it would be like to plant something as its all bog land
@@DwayneMuffin yeah, I thought that alright 🤔the fantasy of planting a plant is also nice 😂
Dwayne, love your videos and the insights to Ibiza. But great to see Ireland up here… beautiful video, fermanagh looks class. Hope you manage a little more while there. See you soon
Cheers boss, we will get a few halves in San Carlos once we are back on the home straight for Summer
Dude, keep making videos doesn't matter where you are. I think I speak for the majority when I say we are just interested in what you are up to at this point. Sure a lot of us just feel that connection to you and are genuinely interested what you are up to. Keep up the good work. From USA, California. Let's go! Ibiza 2022 rain or shine!
it's a cool dude
Amazing, I appreciate that! Definitely will aim to get to Cali if I make it as far as Us
Patiently waiting for this next video about clubs because Dwayne does it BEST👌. Enjoy your time at home mate!
Cheers be back within the month
Ibiza has its own stunning paradise look to it, but back home in Ireland is Beautiful, definitely will try that walk out some day, very well made pathway…. Keep it up Dwayne 👍🏼
It's a lot longer than it looks, 3hrs from the car park and back. That was moving quick but yeah I think I might take the chance and do a few places in ireland, wind sock arrived when I got home.
Hi Dwayne, brilliant video. I knew Ireland has stunning scenery but I had no idea it was as jaw dropping as that. If you blindfolded me and took me there I would have said I was in the Scottish highlands. Good to hear from you again and glad you got home to see your family. I will be at La Kiki for the first 10 days of September so come join me for a drink. Andy
Glad you enjoyed it, Ireland is unreal! All around the coast, Kerry is something else

Brilliant Dwayne. I am watching from Bedford but I am from Belcoo, Co Fermanagh and I loved your vlog. It made me a wee bit homesick and I can't wait to get home during 2022.
Glad you enjoyed it, I love Belcoo, a lot of my friends are from there and a good few out in NYC from there too, so that's one of the reasons I hang in NYC a lot with the half of Belcoo ha
My wife has plenty of family in limerick... due to go at some point... looking forward to seeing ireland!

I need to take more time as I rushed that video but it worked out ok, and of course the wind guard arrived when I got home
You got a great day for it! Takes a man to come from Ibiza for me to get to see it properly! (am in belfast currently)

The lake's of Fermanagh is one of the gems of Northern Ireland
It's lush

What's it like to be "home" again?
all the best for 2022
Hi Rob, it was nice to get a few weeks sleep and good food in me, haven't been out and about much as everyone's in fear of covid but this video has helped give me a spark to do more so I'll probably roll out a bunch in January
@@DwayneMuffin take your rest and enjoy your family dwayne
It's a little bit colder than San Antonio i think!! Great walk in Ireland!
It really is! Just a bit colder
I love Ibiza but you just can't beat the Ireland!
That's 10 mins from my house
@@DwayneMuffin Wow! I would be out with my dogs up there every day i'm home =) So beautiful! I will be visiting NI when i can, its been too long. Was born in Craigavon.
Class Vlog loved that tune in the background…. What is that mate??
Its Ziino - Es Vedra, it's a lad from Ireland that I use for all my music, I'll give you a bell and we will link up next week and do a few bits
@@DwayneMuffin perfect mate looking forward to it
How long would you say the walk takes to do? Great views. Looking forward to more.
Hi, it took me 3 hours from the car park and back, I stopped at the top for tea and sandwiches as well as a good bit of filming
👌🏾
thanks
Name of music? Great scenes
It's a track by Ziino, it was released for the vlogs and i named it Es Vedra, so it's actually got a link to the vlogs
Ziino - Es Vedra available to DL on the link in the description to his sound cloud
I am watching from Long Island City in New York. You should grow your beard back.
Hi Stuart, that's amazing! I love NYC spend as much time as I can there and I hope i'll be there in March
It's the location of trainspotting scenes?
That's in Edinburgh, this is where some scenes from Game Of Throne's is shot but
@@DwayneMuffin Sorry I got confused with Scotland 🙏 Beautiful place!!
oh dear !! def, not ibiza !!!
The big bold letters with Ireland should have gave it away
County Fermanagh is Northern Ireland mate not Ireland
The name of the island it's in / on is called Ireland. Just cause no one acknowledges your I'll gotten secterian little statlet makes you sound like an insecure 🤡. Where do you think the place you call 'Northern IRELAND' gets its name from if it wasn't in Ireland 🙄
