LOCAL AREA:
The Beara Peninsula stretches from Glengarriff to Dursey Island and back to Kenmare and is the wildest of the peninsulas in the South West. The area offers a wealth of activities for the holiday maker including:
- magnificient scenic drives
- challenging walks
- shore and sea angling
- many historic sites.
WALKING TRAILS - The Beara Way
The Beara Way Walking Route is a walking circuit of the peninsula following side roads, boreens, bog roads and tracks, taking in all that is special about the place, including a variety of historical sites ranging from Ogham Stones to Wedge Graves, Stone Circles to ancient church sites. While there are a few stretches along the very edge of the Atlantic, one is never very far from the sea, even on the mountainous parts and the route includes a thrill unique to Beara - a spin over the sea in a tiny cable-car at Dursey Island.
HEALY PASS
The Healy Pass is a rare gem which lies just to the left of rolling hills of Ardgroom Village. Unspoilt and largely desolate, the spectacular views and winding roads showcase the area's flora and fauna. You'll even come lots of sheep grazing on the hillside. Whether you decide to cycle or drive the Healy Pass, the views will be imprinted in your mind forever.
BEACHES
There is a beach 3 miles from Ardgroom Village - its called Puleen and it is a stoney, rather than a sandy beach but perfect for swimming and shoreline activities. There is a beautiful sandy beach in Allihies which just 10 miles from Ardgroom Village.
Droumard is a quiet sheltered cove, ideal for swimming located just a mile from the village. Although stoney, it is a perfect place for a refreshing dip.
