Ring of Kerry
The Ring of Kerry is world famous and rightly so. It is a 110 mile (177km) route, which begins at the Bike Village, travels around the Iveragh Peninsula and weaves its way back into Killarney again. As you zoom around on your motorcycle spare a thought for the thousands cyclists that pedal this entire route every July for charity. The Ring of Kerry has it all – Atlantic views, cliffs, mountains, rivers, lakes and beautiful sandy beaches. Picturesque villages like Sneem and Waterville and charming towns like Kenmare and Caherciveen are dotted along the route. The highlight is undoubtedly the unsurpassed panoramic views of Killarney’s Lakes from Moll’s Gap and Ladies View.
Dingle and Slea Head
Carved by centuries of pounding Atlantic waves The Dingle Peninsula is a geological masterpiece. Awesome cliffs swoop down onto unspoilt sandy beaches, ancient sites and early Christian dwellings lend an air of mystery to the breathtaking touring route which traverses the Dingle Peninsula. Travel via Milltown and Castlemaine to the beach and sand hills of Inch, then continue along the coast to Dingle town – home to Ireland’s famous bottlenose dolphin Fungie. Leave Dingle behind and travel on to Ventry which lies at the heart of the West Kerry Gaeltacht (primarily Irish-speaking region). Next stop Slea Head – Europe’s most westerly point, with sweeping views of the Blasket Islands and Mount Brandon. Return home via Annascaul and the Vale of Tralee. This incredible route will bring you to areas steeped in culture, tradition and literature.
