The Bridia Valley is a beautiful and isolated area of Ireland. The valley is a cul-de-sac and the main attraction and reason for people visiting is the Kerry Way. Surprisingly, there is a great café called the Cooky Monster Café, which adjoins the Stepping Stone Guest House. Both are friendly, handy and well worth a visit.

One of the most incredible landscapes in all of Ireland. A series of lakes connected to each other, immersed in green mountains and fields of free-grazing sheep. Very easy trekking on a paved road, occasionally used by cars and horse-drawn carriages. In a couple of places you can reach the water of the lake and sit on the shore.

This hike takes you through a breathtaking gorge, which opens into the vast, tranquil landscape of the lake through the "gate." The narrow path winds between steep rock faces, offering you repeatedly impressive views of the clear water and the surrounding hills. You can literally feel nature setting the pace here – the calm waves of the lake, the green vegetation stretching over the rocks, and the recurring feeling of vastness. The path is narrow and a bit challenging in places, but that only makes the hike all the more exciting. I particularly liked the small bridges that repeatedly cross the route – perfect for pausing to admire the scenery. Andy's tip is a good one: There are numerous photo spots along the route that you shouldn't miss. One tip: Even though the route is quite popular, you can usually find a quiet corner to take in the scenery. Early morning or late afternoon is the best time to fully enjoy the hike and escape the crowds. It's also worth exploring the route on foot or in one of the traditional horse-drawn carriages – this way you avoid the busy roads and experience the area more intensely. For me, the "Gate & Lake" route is a place of contrasts: from the narrow passage through the gate to the vast, tranquil lake landscape. It's a hike that's not only physically challenging but also offers repeated moments of peace and reflection. Perfect for connecting with the wild beauty of Ireland.

Very mystical area. Great way!

Here you should hike or (at best) take one of the horse-drawn carriages. With the car it's stupid for everyone.

Very nice hike. Absolute Ireland highlight.

Very nice path that is also easy to walk on. Magnificent view. We recommend.

Absolute dream landscape here in the upper part of the valley!
