The Dingle Way – Slí Chorca Dhuibhne
– is a diverse and beautiful Celtic walking trail, A walking holiday
over the Dingle Way is full of surprises for those who wander
its paths - you'll encounter panoramic vistas of sea, mountain
and islands, a profusion of unique birds, plants and unspoiled
landscape, and an astonishing array of ancient sites spanning
6000 years.
Along its 178km (110 mi.) length, The Dingle Way traverses pristine
sandy beaches bordering on crystal seas, fuchsia and gorse lined
green roads leading through pastoral countryside, heather and
bracken covered hills, and mountain passes up to 700 meters (2000
ft.) high. Here, where ancient Bronze Age and Celtic peoples lived
for thousands of years, you can enjoy gannets and shearwaters
in endless flight above wave battered cliffs, or laugh at rare,
red-footed and red-beaked chough dabbling amongst purple Devonian
sandstone boulders along the shore. On another day you might delight
in multiple rainbows over a verdant patchwork quilt of field and
stone as you pause and refresh in the cool quiet glen of an ancient
sacred well. The days will pass all too quickly as you explore
the magical Kingdom of Kerry!
Slí Chorca Dhuibhne is more than nature at its finest ... it is
Gaelic culture at its best. On The Dingle Way much of your walking
will take you through the heart of the Dingle Gaeltacht, one of
the few remaining Irish speaking areas in Ireland. Here Irish
music, dance and traditional ways live on in a vibrant culture
that welcomes you at every turn. In the evening, after your day's
walk, you'll enjoy home-cooked traditional Irish meals or local
seafood in one of the peninsula's many fine restaurants. Afterwards,
there's traditional music and Irish set dancing to savour at many
pubs around the peninsula.
Your walking holiday cost includes 7 outstanding B&Bs, 4 fabulous
dinners, and all your lunches while you are walking. We'll have
your luggage waiting for you at the end of every day. And well
before you head off for Ireland, we'll send you a complete itinerary
and a detailed DingleWay Guide. We have train and bus schedules
on hand too and can help you set up your travel to Tralee.
While you are here, we're never more than 20 minutes from you
by car should a problem pop up. You will be well taken care of!
