    Our holidays reviewed
    in your own words

    Wilderness Ireland is a top-class outfit! Excellent communication from start to finish, great logistics, surprisingly wonderful lodging and dining experiences in some very small towns, and an adaptable hiking plan guided by a skilled, humorous and insightful mountain goat (guide) through beautiful scenery!

    About Wilderness Ireland

    Wilderness Ireland was created by the same team behind the award-winning adventure travel company, Wilderness Scotland, founded in 2001 and recognised as Europe’s Number 1 Adventure Travel Company. With over 20 years of experience, you are assured of the commitment to providing you with a truly memorable holiday experience.

    Wilderness Ireland uses the same formula to create innovative and unique experiences in the most beautiful regions of the country. Whether you want a unique island-hopping adventure, a gentle hike along the Causeway Coast, or a challenging summit of the mountains of Connemara or Kerry, Wilderness Ireland offers amazing guided and self guided hiking options. Prefer travelling by bike? Why not pedal through the iconic region of Kerry or explore the little-known back roads of Donegal – or perhaps even embark on a bucket list adventure biking the Wild Atlantic Way.

    Back in 2001, our sister company Wilderness Scotland set out to create an adventure travel company that really meant what it said in terms of customer service and experience, and Wilderness Ireland, founded 2014, strives for the same level of excellence. On our very first trip, we sweated over every possible detail to ensure that not only did everything go to plan but that we exceeded expectations and delivered a truly memorable wilderness experience. That focus and attention to detail remain the cornerstone of what we continue to do today. Read on to find out what sets us apart – whether it be our amazing guiding team, our commitment to quality and sustainability or our unrivalled local knowledge and expertise.
