Each of Ireland's Province High Points represents the highest place in one of the four Irish provinces. Sometimes referred to as the "Irish Four Peaks", they are one of the eight primary sub-lists used to create the Ireland's Major Geographical High Points list which was first published on 5th December 2015 on our High Point Ireland website.

High Points offer great walking opportunities all year round, however we particularly recommend visiting them during months when the days are longest. For this reason, we promote upland walking as our monthly theme for June.
