Glengarriff – the rugged glen – is a paradise for walkers of all abilities and a key staging post on the Beara Way and the Beara-Breifne Way.

There are Glengarriff walks to suit everyone, from an easy stroll around Glengarriff Nature Reserve or Garinish Island before lunch, to long treks that offer spectacular views back across Bantry Bay.

Walks in and around Glengarriff feature some of the most beautiful scenery in Ireland and showcase all of Ireland’s geological features. Set out to find amazing views to the sea and enjoy idyllic moments by rivers, lakes and forest and peace in bog and mountain…

Then head back to Glengarriff village for a cold pint in a traditional Irish bar or an excellent meal featuring produce drawn from the land and seascapes around you!

A brochure called Walking in Glengarriff is available locally.
