Hiking Tours Ireland

Our hiking tours in Ireland will take you off the beaten path to explore remote and beautiful regions on the Emerald Isle. Discover Ireland’s wild side that few travellers get to experience.

On each of our Ireland hiking trips, enjoy daily hikes led by our experienced guides through the beautiful landscapes of this incredible island. Hiking in Ireland is a great way to experience the Emerald Isle’s rich cultural heritage, meet local characters, and experience Ireland’s famous hospitality. From April to September, we run weekly departure dates, from gentle to moderate and challenging grading. 

Our small group guided tours (max 8 people) ensure that you’ll enjoy the hidden gems of the Irish countryside with personalised attention and support from our knowledgeable guides while staying in quaint, comfortable and charming accommodations.

Much like our sister companies Wilderness Scotland and Wilderness England, our goal is to share with you the best hiking in Ireland, while our grading system allows you to choose the trip that best matches your fitness level, trip ambitions and goals.

At Wilderness Ireland, we want you to love every minute of your holiday! In order to ensure exceptional comfort and friendly service on our small group hiking trips, we handpick each accommodation you stay in. Most of our trips are Classic standard, meaning your accommodation is 3 to 4 star – usually family-run hotels, charming guesthouses, quaint BnBs or even the odd historical manor! We do offer a Deluxe standard, which includes 4 to 5 star accommodations. We do offer a Make it Private option on all of our group trips, with the option to upgrade hotels.

Our tours will include your guide, transport, transfers, ferries, as well as most meals and entrance fees or activities stated in the itinerary. Each day, you’ll partake in a guided hike through some of Ireland’s most stunning landscapes and coastlines. No need to worry about your luggage – carry only a daypack with what you need for the day.

Group tours are perfect for single and solo travellers as you get the chance to join like-minded people, as well as for couples, groups of friends or families. However, groups can also choose our Make it Private option, meaning you can book a private version of our trips that includes only your group of friends, family or colleagues.
