The old green road

Fog…...

Great Blasket view

walking hiking ireland dingle way

On the route: Cloghane - Dingle by the Old Green rd , not the official Dingle-way, but
breathtaking views! And: all the time the Brandon - to cross between Feonagh and Cloghane - in sight. In no time fog banks can come on at this pass to stop your progress of the walk.

Near Slea Head great sea-sights walking on the rough coast. Also the Great Blasket Island, Europe’s most westerly place. At the last day the Connor pass: another highlight!

IRELAND

                                                                 The Dingle-way

Tips:  The Dingle-way on the peninsula in the south-west of Ireland is, from the continent, easy to visit with a flight to Cork-airport, the shuttle-bus to the bus station in the center of Cork, the bus to Tralee and in Tralee a 50 kilometers bus trip to our starting-point: Dingle. There are plenty possibilities to sleep and eat on the route. Almost every B&B will ask after your next destination. And make the reservation for that night: with or without a warm meal.

The map: nr.70 Ordnance Survey of Ireland series, 1:50.000. The way is well marked.

March 1999: a part of the Dingle-way.

Height during the route:
from sea level till 760 m.
