Slieve Binnian | Mourne Mountains

A walk in the Mourne Mountains, from Carrick Little to the numerous tops of the most spectacular and interesting mountain in the Mournes - Slieve Binnian. The tors on the summits provide exciting and exposed viewpoints with stunning views up the Annalong Valley into the heart of the Mournes, over the Irish Sea and into the blue depths of the Silent Valley and Ben Crom Resevoirs.

I never tire of the views from Binnian, I’ve climbed it quite a few times and your video just makes me want to climb it again...wonderful.

Cheers Donna, I am with you the views are amazing as is the mountain and it is a place worth visiting time and again :-)

I did this exact climb 2 weeks ago for the first time and the views were simply stunning. From the East Tor up to Donard and Commedagh and further along towards Bernagh and Ben Crom were the highlights. I can't wait to get down again. Thanks for posting.

Andeez Anderson The Mournes are a great place to return to as they always throw up something different to make each visit unique, enjoy :-)

Can't wait till the summer so we can get back up the Mournes. Great video Gerry . I was up the Binnian at the end of summer mapping out a route for the wee man he really wants to climb the Binnian an see Silent Valley from above .

[@gerrymcveigh]

Now that would be a challenge! One I would love to see :-)

Great Video, Gerry. One of my favorite walks in the Mournes

[@DanielThomas234]

Just walked this today. An amazing experience. Your vid does it justice.

DanielThomas234 Cheers Daniel, a brilliant mountain with so much character :-)

Used to live there, in Newcastle, walked out front door, straight onto beautiful beach, out back door; right up those mountains, very beautiful, biggest mistake of my life moving away, want to go back home:( even though I live in forest of bowland now, which is beautiful all the same, doesn't quite compare,

[@gerrymcveigh]

It would be pretty cool to live in Newcastle with all those wonderful natural features on your doorstep. It sounds like the Forest of Bowland is a cool place but there certainly is something really special about the mountains of Mourne. Hope you get the opportunity to return at least on occasion to recapture some of the magic :-)

Just started watching your videos Gerry. I climbed Slieve Binnion a few months back as number 6 of the 7 seven's. Binnion and Lamagan nearly finished me off lol. Great video.

[@gerrymcveigh]

Cheers Martin and well done on completing what is quite a challenge :-)

Cheers, can't beat the Mournes, unless it's the Sperrins ;-)

[@sperrinoutdoors7642]

gerry mcveigh i will agree with that

[@KartingApexKing]

How long is the walk? In hours?

[@matchettman11]

Great vid, terrible song- really those lyrics are beyond sad

[@gerrymcveigh]

Peter, i have to agree with you not one of my better choices but glad you liked the visual content :-)

ruined the whole video when there are so many other more appropriate songs for a video about the Mournes.
