Conquer a Stunning Ridge Walk with Panoramic Views

Looking for a hike with breathtaking scenery, no matter the weather? This walk, to be led by Fergal Harrington starts on the iconic Kerry Way and will lead you off-trail to a magnificent 3km undulating mountain ridge.

With relatively low summits, it’s accessible in most conditions, offering stunning panoramic views of Kenmare Bay, the Caha Mountains, the Atlantic Ocean, and the majestic An Bheann Mór. Keep an eye out for local wildlife, including sheep, hares, mountain goats, ravens, and even the elusive white-tailed sea eagle!

With all advertised walks please bear in mind that these can change at short notice due to weather and other unforeseen circumstances. Meeting point for these walks (unless otherwise noted) is outside Dan Murphy’s Bar in Sneem at 10AM. Please ensure that you are registered on the Sneem Walking Club’s Whatsapp Group for updates. Please note that dogs are not allowed on our walks, as we walk on privately owned land with the kind permission of the owners / farmers.
