Ireland
 

Going to ireland middle of aug this year. Any recommendations

Hi,
How long will you be here for? That might change this list.

In general, see all of the Kerry coastline. There are a few specific passes that should not be missed This list includes:

The heally Pass, The connor pass, The gap of Dunlow (this is strangely slippy in the middle of the road, and best done after 5pm as it will have much less walkers), priests leap. by following the coast road, you will have a couple of great days riding there, more if you like stops.

Then follow the Wild Atlantic way north. You pretty much cannot go wrong. This route is scenic (and therefore twisty and not very large roads). You'll get 2 or 3 weeks out of that if you explore every little beach and port along the way.

The midlands of the country is mainly farmland, and what mountains we have are not as dramatic as what you would see in Kerry or Donegal, so I would stick to the coast.

Yes,the Wild atlantic way and the Wicklow mountain areas for a start.If possible stop off for a coffee in my favorite little part of the country to Grid - 52.49112, -6.92974.

Did the Ring of Kerry a few years ago, most of it is one way as the road is very narrow in places. Lots of tourist buses and dawdlers, didn't see much because of the constant mist.
