IRLAND AT A GLANCE

IRLAND: WHAT YOU CANT MISS

CLIFFS OF MOHER

Whithout no shadow of doubt, The Cliff of Moher which are located to the north of Galway are one of the most vertical and impressive spots in Irland. 

Keeping in mind that they are 1,5 h away from Galway I strongly recommend you dont miss the bus back to the city, otherwise you´ll be oblige to hichhicking and have a lot of fun with a weird bus full of Ucranians that cant speak and English word.

KILLARNEY NATIONAL PARK

If you have the chance just rent a bike and get lost in this magic National Park. There are different tracks depending on your level from 40min walks to 4 hours steep walks with amazing views.  

GLENDALOUGH

Where the old monks used to live. Beyond doubt this place was choosen not only because the quietness but also for one of the deepest and more extensive lake in Irland and their surroundings. Life wildness and spirituality can easily be enjoyed in this natural reserve. NOTE: Swimming is not allow, jejeje.   

Going for the 2 hours track around the Lake and it´s mountais is hight recommended. Don´t be lazy.
