We almost missed it - THE stone circle of West Cork!
The special features of the Stone Circle in Kenmare:
1) The largest in West Cork
2) One of the very few that isn't round, but egg-shaped
3) Particularly old (3,500 BC)
4) Surrounded by walls in a small city park 🫢
5) Costs admission 🤣

The weather forecast predicts quite a bit of rain for our leg to Kenmare. And more than 20 kilometers in the rain is a bit of a letdown 😅
So we follow the advice of our host Sheila in Lauragh. Her husband is bringing a guest to Kenmare, so he takes us along and drops us off at a certain spot, from where

Our gracious host, John, drove us the first two kilometers, which would have taken us along the country road! "Oh no, you have to walk so much, I'll give you a lift to the first post!" So we cheated a little today 🤗
The first "Beara Way Post" then, as usual, points directly into the marshy sheep meadows

It's commonly said that Ireland has a lot of coastline and even hiking trails along the water. We discovered that's true today. On this stage, our seventh, after leaving the town of Eyeries with its beautiful, colorful houses behind us, the trail follows the coastline along the shores of Coulagh Bay

The road to Eyeries leads directly past the famous "Man Machine," a relic from the copper mining era on the Beara Peninsula. As explained in the museum in Allihies, this was the world's only mine shaft in which a steam engine powered a system of up-and-down ladders to transport miners in and out of the

Allihies is the starting point for visiting Dursey Island. A bus departs at 10:00 a.m. to the cable car, which then takes you to Dursey Island. You can also take the same bus back at 4:20 p.m.
We opted for the option of taking a taxi to the cable car at 9:00 a.m. and doing a shorter walk on Dursey Island

The stage to Allihies begins with a highlight. Shortly after Castletownbere, on a small pasture, you can see the Bronze Age "Derreenattaggart Stone Circle."
The next highlight is certainly the expansive panoramic views from the saddle below Knockoura. Castletownbere and Bere Island on one side, Allihies

After the strenuous first two stages, we decided to take the late ferry on our visit to Bere Island today and just go for a short walk.
The original Beara Way includes a full circuit of Bere Island, covering around 20km. And if you also include the easternmost tip, you'll quickly reach 28km.

Just back from Ireland and, quite by chance, landed on the Baltic coast. We then took a walk through the countryside around Timmendorfer Strand, Niendorf, and up to the border with Travemünde. Lake Hemmelsdorf and the surrounding "Aalbeek Lowland" landscape are beautiful.
