This is fantastic!! I’m going to give it a go when my friend and I come over in a few weeks from the states. I have no doubt she’ll make it as she’s quite a hiker but my heart wants to try so here I come. Thank you for this beautiful inspiration!

Great video and great work that was badly needed on the path. What is the purpose of the side walls? Is it to keep people on the path?
@climbthereek

The path is held together under compression. The walls provide lateral compression on the sides of the path as well as act retaining walls to hold back tonnes of cobble. Thanks for your kind words

I have hiked all over the world (including the Reek in 2009) an never seen this level of competence and artistry in the rehab of this heavily used trail. Congratulations to all involved for a wonderful project. Thanks so much to all for your hard work and dedication.

It's amazing how much back-breaking work was required to compensate for the thoughtless, selfish people who were in such a hurry that they had to take "shortcuts,'' highly discouraged on trails everywhere because they usually lead to more damage and erosion. Outstanding work as usual. We can only hope that people eventually respect the mountain and your hard work, and cut that out. Maybe you need volunteer "ambassadors'' watching out during especially busy periods to correct poor behavior.
