Wishing Bridge (Gap of Dunloe)

Highlight • Bridge

A very suggestive, almost magical place, where nature is still the main actress. From here you can enjoy a beautiful view of the valley. It is beautiful to cross it on foot, by bicycle or on horseback.

Worth the hike through the Gap up to Black Valley and back especially on a dry day. So stunning 👍🏻

Ballaghbeama Gap

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Magical climb on really good new road surface. Love the signs for the next 1km showing the gradient getting gradually tougher. 9.8% for the last 0.5km was tough going. Good …

The Gap of Dunloe

Highlight (Segment) • Mountain Pass

The Gap of Dunloe is a pass once formed by glaciers. It is part of the Ring of Kerry cycle tour and is a must if you're in Kerry County. Scenic the absolute madness!
