Ghost slab in Dalkey Quarry
Ghost slab in Dalkey Quarry
The old quarry in Dalkey is full of opportunity for climbing. Most of the rock is sound and protectable. There are two valleys in the quarry as well as the upper cliffs amounting in some 500 climbing routes, and that’s just the ones that are in the guidebook. The routes in the valleys are generally short and sustained, whilst the climbs on the upper cliffs are much longer and in some cases are split up into two or more pitches. The quarry is a great place to learn to abseil and to climb as it has some great uncomplicated slabs of rock to practice on. This particular climb that is shown here is called Ghost and is a very challenging and un-nerving slab climb as there are very few places for the lead climber (Jonathan Mullen) to place pieces of gear to protect himself.

The Boardwalk in Glendalough
The Boardwalk in Glendalough
This photograph shows a lady sitting by the boardwalk in Glendalough overlooking the valley below. It was built using old unused railway sleepers. There was a great need for this boardwalk as the route along the top of the Spinks cliffs in Glendalough is a popular route taken by many walkers. Over use of this walk in recent times had resulted in trail erosion close to the cliff edge which was very dangerous to the unsuspecting walker. The boardwalk itself is about 2 and a half miles long and has viewing spots along the way to admire the beautiful valley with the upper and lower lakes below. There are many known walks that meet up with the boardwalk in Geldalough, passing by Lugduff, Gelnmalour and other areas along the Wicklow Way.
