Description
A view around the Twelve Bens mountain range near Tullycross, Connemara in the West of Ireland. A storm is brewing, but a little chink of sunlight gently lights up a hillside. Heavy rain fell a few minutes after taking the shot!
The Twelve Bens or Twelve Pins is a mountain range of mostly sharp-peaked quartzite summits and ridges located in the Connemara National Park in County Galway. The widest definition of the range includes the Garraun Complex to the north as well as several isolated peaks to the west, and is designated a 16,163-hectare Special Area of Conservation.
Topographically, the range is partnered with the Maumturks range to the east of the Inagh valley (a Western Way route); and both share a common geology being largely composed of metamorphic marine rocks, being predominantly resistant quartzite but with deposits of schists in the valleys (known as Connemara Dalradian rocks). The highest point is Benbaun at 729 metres (2,392 ft). The range is a popular location for hill-walking activities with the 16–kilometre 8–9 hour Glencoaghan Horseshoe (Irish: Gleann Chóchan), considered one of the best ridge-walks in Ireland.
