Trip Overview
Created by: Darragh Devaney
Two of the wildest and most iconic regions of Ireland are the Burren and Connemara. Exotic and desolate, the Burren is a place of exposed limestone hills, brilliantly exploding with vibrant colour every spring upon the arrival of its famed wildflowers. Connemara is a remote, rural place made up of mountains and bogs. Tiny country lanes weave amongst its rugged heather-cloaked peaks, winding between quaint villages.
Home to many of Ireland’s Gaeltacht communities, you’ll surely get the chance to hear the Irish language spoken amongst the inhabitants. The best way to explore these two regions is by bike – go at your own pace as you soak up the region’s raw beauty. Biking along the coast of the Wild Atlantic Way is a fantastic way to experience the unspoilt beauty of Ireland!
This is a self guided+ supported cycling tour. You will have a soigneur (support guide) to transport you to/from the start/end of your day’s bike ride, deliver your luggage each day and act as a mechanic on call if you require assistance. This means you can enjoy linear routes and more flexibility. Ride at your own pace with lots of support but without a guide on the road with you while you’re cycling.
