The Slievemores
A Slievemore is any mountain summit in Ireland over 2,000 feet above sea level with a prominence of at least 150 metres. The list is derived from the overlapping sections of three different third-party summit lists. They are the Dillons, the Irish Hewitts and the Irish Marilyns. To qualify as a Slievemore, a summit must feature on all three of these lists. The Slievemore list currently comprises 99 Irish mountain summits.
The Slievemores is an original list compiled and published by The Ireland Walking Guide. It was first published on this website on 25th July 2020. Any future amendments to the Dillon, Irish Hewitt and Irish Marilyn lists will be reflected accordingly in the Slievemore list. The word "Slievemore" translates as "big mountain". Several Irish mountains and hills are called Slievemore, including the one on Achill Island whose 671m high summit features on this list.
Mountain and hill summits 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.
