CROAGH PATRICK CAR PARK CLOSURE

The car park at Croagh Patrick is now closed to the public. The decision was taken on behalf of Mayo County Council to close the car park in Murrisk following the request by local Gardí.

This is the second time that the car park has been closed during the pandemic along with an advisory not to climb the mountain during the tightening of restrictions. The decision was made after considering the added risks both Mayo Mountain Rescue and front line services face in rescuing climbers.
