4-Day / 3-Night Moderate

From your point of arrival, use the public transport information we provide to make the journey to Killarney. From Killarney, you can take another bus* on to Glenbeigh.

From Glenbeigh, you have the option to visit beautiful Rossbeigh Strand and dip you toes into the waters of Dingle Bay. From there, country roads and an old coach path take you around Drung Hill, with wide views across the bay and the Dingle peninsula. Pass above an old railway viaduct before the trail descends over wild moorland into the Ferta River valley and continues on tracks and country roads towards Foilmore, near the town of Cahersiveen.

While you are not climbing to any great height on today’s walk it is nonetheless one of the more demanding walks of the Kerry Way. The trail follows scenic and undulating mountain ridges that offer stunning views of the mountains that surround the route in all directions. An optional road alternative lets you skip the last ridge which can be the most challenging part of the day. No matter which route you choose, your hike finishes in Waterville, one of Ireland’s most westerly towns, which enjoys spectacular sunsets.

There is a bus service from Waterville to Killarney. From Killarney, continue on to Dublin, Cork or Limerick by bus or by train. Full details provided upon booking.
