October 9, 2021 Toi Mattera

Eask Tower

Unbelievable views of lovely Dingle Bay and sheep to accompany you along the 30-minute climb! Wear washable shoes as you’ll need to clean them with a hose (provided by gate keeper Mary) after walking in sheep droppings!

Dun na mBo

Reviewed By MagsWard12 - Delvin, Ireland

Not far from bellmullet the views of the coast are amazing. The sun shone and we were in awe coming off the beaten track to witness such a spot. Beautiful. Rough access roads so just take care driving along but absolutely worth it.

Loop Head Lighthouse

Reviewed By PaddyM827 - Dublin, Ireland

You must make your way down the road from Kilbaha to the carpark at Loop Head. Walk to the right and look north to see try he cliffs , turn left and follow the path as it travels from the Atlantic to the Shannon Estuary. Smell the air and take lots of pictures.

Smithfield Chimney

Reviewed By MrsPauze

The Generator hostle staff was super friendly in getting us tickets and were really clear about what we were in for on the climb - over 240 steps. My husband and I arent exactly fit and were winded once we got to the top so we spent longer looking at everything to be able to catch our breath. It was really a beautiful view and we were the only ones up there.
