Welcome to "Elements" - an outdoor pursuits provider focusing on adventure, enjoyment and safety. I run mountain training courses, guided hill walks and mountain treks throughout Ireland, the UK, Europe and Asia. Based on Ballydavid Head overlooking Smerwick harbour on the Dingle Peninsula, just minutes away from Mt. Brandon, Elements is Europe's most westerly outdoor pursuits outfit.
Specialising in tailor-made courses to suit your needs, I also run scheduled courses with a low student to instructor ratio to ensure you get the most from your time spent with me. The majority of courses are run by myself, Darach Ó Murchú, but occasionally I work with an associate from a select panel of highly motivated instructors. We are passionate about the outdoors and strive to provide the highest level of professional service. Please choose an item from the main menu to see what's on offer.
Mountain Training Courses - Get the know how to safely roam the hills and mountains. Learning these skills will enable you to discover the freedom of the hills and explore without limits. We provide training, from fundamental map reading and mountain safety to ice climbing and expedition training. Consider it a life enhancement.
Guided Hillwalks and Treks - An active holiday in the mountains is the best holiday you can have: it's exciting, rewarding and highly social. A real change from everyday life, you will discover a new world and have a memorable experience. Guided walks in the mountains of Kerry and throughout Ireland and Scotland; worldwide treks.
Educational Packages - Multi-activity half and full day packages for primary and secondary schools based on the Dingle Peninsula/ Corca Dhuibhne. A variety of nature education, outdoor and cultural activities.
