Wanderlust World Wanderlust World Ireland's highest settlements are surprisingly low due to its geography (central lowlands, coastal mountains). The highest towns/villages (not just hamlets):
| Town/Village | County | Elevation |
|---|---|---|
| Glencree | Wicklow | ~250 m (820 ft) |
| Roundwood | Wicklow | ~240 m (787 ft) |
| Laragh (Glendalough) | Wicklow | ~200 m (656 ft) |
| Newtownmountkennedy | Wicklow | ~180 m (590 ft) |
| Enniskerry | Wicklow | ~160 m (525 ft) |
| Ballinrobe | Mayo | ~130 m (427 ft) |
| Clifden | Galway | ~50 m (164 ft) |
The provided list (Newcastle West 12m, Glin 4m, etc.) appears to be lowest coastal towns, not highest. Ireland's highest peak is Carrauntoohil (1,038 m), but no permanent settlements near summit.
