This seven-night self-guided walking and cycling holiday explores County Kerry, the location of Ireland’s 10 highest peaks and a vast national park containing the country’s oldest oak forests.
A haven for hikers and cyclists, with magnificent views of land and sea at every turn. Kerry also boasts an abundance of welcoming towns, B&Bs and cosy pubs in which to rest weary feet. Admirably referred to by locals as ‘The Kingdom’, Kerry will give you a striking, authentic and truly memorable experience of Ireland with its astonishing natural beauty, enriched by the warm welcome of its people.
The Wild Atlantic Way spans the full Western coast of Ireland and on this holiday you explore its wonderful Southern peninsula. With one of the country’s finest national parks as its backyard, the lively tourism hub of Killarney is often the starting point for Kerry’s two famed loop drives: the larger Ring of Kerry skirts the mountainous, island-fringed Iveragh Peninsula. The more compact Dingle Peninsula is like a condensed version of its southern neighbour, with ancient Christian sites, sandy beaches and glimpses of a hard, unforgiving land. Killarney’s exquisite beauty makes it one of Kerry’s most popular tourist destinations. We ensure you escape from the crowds, along a mountain pass, an isolated cove or an untrodden trail.

- Boat trip from Ross Castle through the three lakes of Killarney to Lord Brandon’s cottage.
