The bus first brought us to the base of The Sugarloaf Mountain. The Mountain is only 500 meters high but the slope leading up to the top is extremely steep. We took around 40 minutes to climb up to the summit and the view from the top was indeed rewarding.
Climbing down, as expected, was even tougher than climbing up. Everyone looked exhausted when we finally reached the base.
The bus brought us to Glendalough in the afternoon. Glendalough is a glacial valley, formally a monastic settlement in the Medieval times.
A simple but fulfilling day trip. Climbing is quite fun and rewarding but not so good for your knees.
