The Dingle Peninsula - a Walkers Guidebook

by: Adrian Hendroff
The spectacular Dingle Peninsula in southwest Ireland extends westward into the Atlantic from Tralee to Slea Head. Voted among the Top 100 destinations in the world by TripAdvisor and referred to as the most beautiful place on earth by National Geographic, its landscape includes soaring mountaintops, gentle hillsides, secluded lakes and valleys, ancient ruins, dramatic sea cliffs and long, sandy beaches.

This guide takes you off the beaten track to explore this stunning landscape in a variety of walking routes ranging from short hikes to full-day treks. From the wild extremities of the Great Blasket Island to the majestic heights of Mount Brandon and the comfort of the Dingle Way, there's something for all tastes.

The book contains 24 walks varying in length from 4 km up to 22 km. Each route begins with a box giving grade, distance, ascent, time and start and finish point, followed by an overview. A full route description follows including GPS waypoints and coloured sketch maps of the route. The book also includes numerous colour photographs. An introductory chapter provides some background information and practical advice.
