View of Ventry Beach and Mount Eagle

Highlight • Viewpoint

This vast, crescent-shaped bay offers one of the safest and most beautiful sandy beaches on the peninsula. Only the view is somewhat spoiled by the caravans behind the beach. For the cyclist, the passage along this Blue Flag beach is a relief: a flat road with a sweeping view of the crystal-clear water and the green headlands protecting the bay. The rugged peaks of Mount Eagle lie in the background.

Fahan Beehive Huts and Coastal Cliffs View

Highlight • Historical Site

Directly along the spectacular Slea Head Drive lie these unique 'clocháin' or beehive huts. These conical stone structures, built without cement using the ancient dry-stone method, once housed early Christian hermits. From the bike, you have a phenomenal view here of the cliffs that fall sheer into the Atlantic Ocean, with the contours of the Blasket Islands on the horizon.

View of Clogher Head and Ceann Sibeal

Highlight • Viewpoint

From this elevated viewpoint, you have a phenomenal view of the jagged 'teeth' of Clogher Head braving the Atlantic swell. Directly behind them rise the monumental red sandstone cliffs of Ceann Sibéal (Sybil Head), which at 200 meters high form an unassailable barrier. For the cyclist, this point offers a stunning contrast: the deep blue bay of Ferriter's Cove at your feet and the dramatic rock faces that served as a backdrop for Star Wars on the horizon. A place where the raw, northern power of the Wild Atlantic Way becomes tangible.

Connor Pass Viewpoint

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

Conor Pass (An Chonair) is a narrow, rugged mountain pass where the climb from Dingle immediately falls into a steady rhythm: long stretches of 6–8% with some shorter bursts towards 10%, while the road winds its way up along rock faces. The asphalt is good but narrow, with limited space to pull over and sometimes strong crosswinds that hit the flank from the valleys. As you get higher, the landscape opens up and you see the lakes and peat slopes sinking away below you. The summit is windy and bare, but offers a wide panorama towards Brandon Bay — and a fast, technical descent on the north side where you ride through narrow bends and open sections with varying wind pressure.
