Departure from Ireland
Beautiful hike in Kerry through the famous Gap of Dunloe: a beautiful chain of lakes, ravines, passes, roamed by herds of sheep, in an almost arid mountain atmosphere as you approach the summit. A great option to escape the crowds coming to the Gap of Dunloe by horse-drawn carriage or car. Breath-taking views of the Gap of Dunloe, the Upper Lake of Killarney, the Black Valley, the ocean (to the West and South West) as well as the roof of Ireland, the Carrauntuohil.
