I know you guys are never as happy as when you're on your way up a mountain but if we fancied a few days on the flat / variable terrain where's the most largest, most wild place in Ireland.

Is there anywhere nice and remote that you can do a few days walking and just get lost in for a bit.

Connemara is pretty wild but does have mountains
If you die with all your parts working your not trying hard enough!

Pop over to Scotland and do the WHW!  Very low cost if you take the boat/bus option and use the designated "wild" camp spots.  Or you could just do a section of the WHW, and if its wilderness you are looking for then taking in some of Rannoch Moor would be a decent place to start :)

Did you ever decide where you are going to go jonno?

we were in connemara last year camping, the whole family its about as wild and desolate as you can get in this country, fantastic place

I wasn't planning anything soon. Just gathering ideas. I'm really liking the idea of Donegal bring both wild and not too far away.
