Plant Life in the Mourne Mountains

Join Field Studies Ireland for a fully outdoor, guided walk through the lowlands of the Mourne Mountains, exploring and identifying the rich and varied plant life found across this unique landscape.

This relaxed and informative workshop invites participants to journey through the foothills, discovering how to identify a wide range of upland and lowland species, while learning about their ecology, adaptations, and stories within the landscape.

Together, we’ll explore how climate, geology, and altitude shape the diversity of plant life in the Mournes. Expect a mix of walking, observation, storytelling, and discussion, as we uncover the connections between plants, people, and place.

This course is most suitable for beginners or those wishing to continue learning about plants, nature, and upland habitats, and for anyone looking to deepen their connection to the landscape through understanding and appreciation.

Enjoy an immersive, 100% outdoor learning experience surrounded by the stunning scenery of the Mourne Mountains. Suitable for adults only.
