Perfect vantage point to check out the valleys of Glencar, the Reeks, and Caragh lake to the South and Rossbeigh, and the Dingle Peninsula to the north west.

Hiking

The Windy Gap bears his name rightly. While it can still be completely calm in the inland, a stiff breeze whistles up here. From up here you have a magnificent view of the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, whose summits rise to the west clearly above the vast landscape. In the other direction, you can already see Glenbeigh and Dingle Bay.
