    Tips

    February 22, 2023

    The Douce Sheehy Pass in Cork, Ireland is one of the best cycling routes in the area. The surrounding area is simply stunning, with green hills and rocky landscapes.

    The bike route to Douce Sheehy Pass is challenging but rewarding. The road is narrow and winds through the countryside, and be prepared for steep climbs and winding descents. The route is perfect for mountain bikes and touring bikes, not so much for racing bikes. In any case, you should be in good physical condition and riding experience to accept the challenge.

    The pass is also an important part of Cork's history. It is named after the famous Irish rebel Seán Ó Súilleabháin (aka Douce Sheehy) who lived and fought in this area in the 18th century.
