You step out of Dublin’s steady urban rhythm and into a landscape that seems to have its own agenda: low clouds scud across limestone outcrops, peat bogs darken the roadside, and the Atlantic begins to unclench in the distance.

Adventure Tips
Pack a compact bag
Luggage is limited to 20 kg per person—bring one carry-on-sized bag and a small daypack for hikes and camera gear.
Waterproofs are non-negotiable
Ireland’s weather flips quickly; a lightweight waterproof and pack cover keep you comfortable during coastal stops and waterfall walks.
Bring small cash and a card
Most towns accept cards but some tiny shops or parking meters prefer euros—carry a small amount for snacks or local crafts.
Wear grippy walking shoes
Trails and headlands are often slick with sea spray or peat—sturdy, grippy footwear reduces slips on wet rock and muddy paths.
