Description

The Dingle, Iveragh and Beara peninsulas dominate the spectacular landscape of southwest Ireland. Their rugged peaks, dramatic ridges, captivating valleys, glittering lakes and stunning Atlantic coastline form a treasure chest of walking options. This guide describes exhilarating walks in each peninsula, accompanied by the author's photographs and specially drawn maps. These walks provide a range of options, both for those familiar with the region and for first-time visitors. This region attracts thousands of walkers annually and, since most routes are not signposted or waymarked, an up-to-date guidebook is essential. The walk descriptions also include material on the fauna, flora, folklore, history, geology and place names of the area.

Editorial Reviews

"This useful guide is small enough to fit in the glove compartment of a car or into a rucksack, which makes it an indispensable item of equipment when heading for Kerry. Be sure to read the Introduction, which contains much practical information and a brief survey of the geological history of the peninsulas."
