Hike to Croagh Patrick (Cruach Phadraig), near Westport, Ireland

The mountain has its own mystique even without the Saint Patrick Pilgrimage sidebar. According to legend, Saint Patrick fasted in 441 AD for 40 days on top. This short video shows what its like to climb the mountain on a foggy day, and to be greeted with fantastic views of the Clew Bay Islands on the descent.
