Dingle Peninsula Guided Walking Tour
About the experience
Our Wild Atlantic Way walk in the heart of the West Kerry Gaeltacht (Irish-speaking area) will bring you along the cliffs of Dunquin, overlooking the Blasket Island archipelago. The Dingle Peninsula is steeped in rich heritage and culture. Kevin, your guide, will impart some of this while walking through its landscape. Kevin will enrich the walk with stories of the ancient past, the recent past right up to today, and plenty of Irish folklore, myth, legend, history, and geology—a very enriching experience all around in some beautiful landscape. The rhythm and pace of walking lend themselves to good conversation, and when you throw the inspirational scenery of the Dingle Peninsula into that mix, it all adds up to a great place and space to spend time with friends and family or just go solo. The distance covered will be approximately 3 miles (5km) on mostly flat terrain, which is very doable.
