Lovely ramblers walk, not too hard and very enjoyable, nature at its beset. BUT ..... sorry folks, I know the Galwegians like to say Queen Maeve is buried here but she is not, she is buried on the top of KnocknaRea in County Sligo.

Stayed at Allihies with my family in September. The trip via Healy Pass is an adventure all of its own. It is fabulous and the views are out of this world.

A scenic stretch of land surrounded by rugged coastline.
Reviewed By MartletwyOnTour - Wales, United Kingdom
Talk about 'WOW'! The drive up heading north/south was steady and pleasant and then we got to the pass itself which is indeed narrow and right on the cliff edge! My friend who was driving loved it and the challenge - I just looked right away from the sheer drop alongside us! Completely worth it though of course because as soon as we reached the car park at the summit of the road path, the views back across the valley were quite simply breathtaking! Then a pleasantly steady descent down into Dingle to steady the nerves!!

Excellent venue and everyone loved it , hidden gem If you don’t want to walk you can drive to another car park and the views from there are amazing. If you want to walk further you can walk on up the mountain which is well worth the effort. Plenty of photo opportunities.

Horn Head had magnificient panoramic views in all directions. On a clear day you can see Malin Head to the east, Bloody Foreland to the west, Tory Island to the north west, & Mt Errigal & Muckish to the south. So this is a must on a trip to this part of Donegal.

Took a trip up here while visiting Glencar Waterfall and Glenade Lough. Was well worth a trip and walk about. Stunning scenery. It reminded me a bit of the Grand Canyon but covered in green. I'd recommend and perhaps walking up to the Eagle's Rock as close as possible.

Great hike! Very well maintained trail with nice and clean toilet facilities at the entrance to the National Park. Amazing views from the top of the surrounding area. Worth keeping in mind that proper footwear is needed as it does get a bit rocky near the top.
10. Giant's Causeway
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 11,147 reviews
Northern Ireland's most popular tourist destination: this large stretch of staircase-shaped rocks is the result of cooled lava from volcanic eruptions that took place over 65 million years ago.
Reviewed By Orrix55
A one kilometer walk or bus ride (£1 each way for the bus - free for walking) gets you to this fascinating attraction created by volcanic eruptions millions of years ago. There is a very entertaining audio guide that provides information on the various features on the landscape, such as the camel and organ pipes etc. The walk down could be a bit challenging, the road and path down is quite steep so I would suggest the bus for those with any problems. We walked down and took the bus back. Make time to visit the visitors centre at the end, it has something for everyone, especially children, coffee, drinks and food available.
