There are many famous fairy mountains around Ireland.
People made sacred journeys to the summits of these mountains at particular times of the year associated with the god or goddess. Áine was a fertility goddess so she was propitiated around harvest time. Donn would have been propitiated at either Samhain or the Winter Solstice as he was god of the Dead.
