Wishing Bridge (Gap of Dunloe)

Highlight • Bridge

A very suggestive, almost magical place, where nature is still the main actress. From here you can enjoy a beautiful view of the valley. It is beautiful to cross it on foot, by bicycle or on horseback.

Lough Acoose

Highlight • Lake

A freshwater fishing lake, Lough Acoose is home to the endangered European Eel. The views from the roads lining the banks of the lough are beautiful. With the backdrop of the mountains, you could be anywhere.
