Tips

September 13, 2020

Cycling

Really great mountain ride which gradually (3%) climbs for 7.4 miles (12 km) to 1,345 feet (410 m). The views are amazing on a clear day. The road surface is as good as you will get anywhere in Ireland on a remote mountain pass and your only company will be sheep. Be careful as this is their mountain not yours!

Cycling

Great cycle on quiet roads. Pick a day with nice weather, as very exposed at the top.

Mountain biking

The Bencroy Pass is in this quiet desolate place. Where once coal miners and machinery activity was heard, now only the wind.
