Macgillicuddy's Reeks

Macgillicuddy's Reeks (Na Cruacha Dubha, meaning "The Black Tops") are a range of mountains in County Kerry, Ireland. Stretching slightly over 19km (12 mi.) they include Carrantuohill[?], which at 1041 m (3414 ft.) is the highest mountain in Ireland, and over 100 other hewitts (peaks of over 2000 feet). The mountains, part of the Armorican Highlands[?], are of glacial-carved sandstone and are situated near the Lakes of Killarney[?].
