"It's not advisable to drink too much strong liquors while climbing in the Alps. If, however, you are going to fall over a cliff, it's advisable to be thoroughly intoxicated when you do so. - Anonymous English alpinist"

all day

Signup now!

We're heading back to Fossa for another 4 days of madness, debauchery, and mountaineering. The hostel is fantastic - warm, hot showers, decent beds, everything you could want. We do mountaineering stuff during the days and go drinking by night. Then on New Year's Eve, the committee cook everyone a gourmet dinner (we're thinking at least 6 courses this year)!! mmmmmm tasty!.

The rough plan:
Arrive on the 28th - eat, drink, and be merry whenever you get there.
29th - chill out, hike / climb / whatever takes your merry fancy
30th - merry mountain day. we're hoping to pair freshers / inexperienced people with the more experienced and head out doing proper "mountaineering" routes i.e. not the usual route up the mountains
31st - head up the highest mountain in Ireland and have celebratory booze!
1st - decide you need to wash and go home.

Check out the gmap to see where to go (and where Carrantouhill is)
