  • Day 1 Arrival in Camp

    From your point of arrival, use the public transport information we provide to make the journey to Camp.

  • Day 2 Camp - Annascaul

    10.5 Miles / 17 Km 5-7 Hrs 1310 ft / 400 Metres

    Follow the Emlagh River valley through the heart of the Dingle Peninsula and across to its southern shores. Treat yourself to an ice cream and a stroll along the magnificent beach at Inch Strand before continuing on to Annascaul – home to the South Pole Inn and legendary early 20th century Antarctic explorer, Tom Crean.

  • Day 3 Annascaul - Dingle Town (Daingean Uí Chúis)

    12.5-13.5 Miles / 20.5-22 Km 6-8 Hrs 1670 ft / 510 Metres

    Quiet roads and farmland tracks guide you first back to the sea and past the ruins of the 16th century Minard Castle. You then pass the village of Lispole with the remains of the Lispole Railway Viaduct. From there, lower mountain slopes lead you to the popular Gaeltacht town of Dingle – renowned for its music, its culture and Fungi – a bottle-nosed dolphin that had been greeting visitors in Dingle Harbour from 1984 to 2020.

  • Day 4 Dingle (Daingean Uí Chúis) - Dunquin (Dún Chaoin)

    13.75 Miles / 22 Km 6-8 Hrs 1800 ft / 550 Metres

    Today’s hike is one of the highlights of the Dingle Way – an unforgettable trek that will transport you from modern Ireland to the ‘old country’. It offers a beautiful beach walk, coastal views, early Christian ‘Beehive Huts’, an Iron Age cliff fort, the much-photographed pier at Dunquin and stunning cliff-top vistas over the mystical Blasket Islands.

  • Day 5 Dunquin (Dún Chaoin) - Cuas (An Chlais)

    15.5 Miles / 25 Km 6-8 Hrs 1210 ft / 370 Metres

    Delving ever deeper into the Gaeltacht, you continue along the Atlantic coastline and some of Ireland’s more picturesque and secluded beaches. At Smerwick Harbour you can take an optional detour to see the famous Gallarus Oratory, Ireland’s most iconic early Christian church, and then follow one of the finest cliff-top walks in the country. Stop for refreshments in the local pub on the coast, before the route guides you to the tiny townland of Cuas, with the imposing peak of Mount Brandon watching over your every step.

  • Day 6 Departure from Cuas (An Chlais)

    Free transfer to Dingle Town at 10 am. There is a regular bus service from Dingle Town. Full details provided upon booking.
