Between the mountains & the sea

Glengarriff in West Cork offers a unique and sheltered haven on Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way.

Nestled beneath the grandeur of West Cork’s Caha mountains, and just a short hop from the islands in Bantry Bay, Glengarriff’s small and characterful village is the perfect base for you to relax and explore the south-west stretch of Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way!

Glengarriff Nature Reserve

Enjoy waymarked trails in the sheltered glen that opens out into Glengarriff Harbour. Over some 300 hectares, you’ll see some of the best examples of oceanic sessile oak woodland in Ireland. Lovely woodland paths, secluded pools, and stunning vistas across the bay are just waiting to be discovered.
