The section from Annascaul to Dingle was the second prettiest hike of the Dingle Way, with intermittent light rain and a long stop at the rocky cliffs surrounding Minard Castle. I could easily envision a Count of Monte Christo scene here or at the very least some smugglers bringing in French wine.
Hard rain on day 3 of our Dingle Way but it didn’t last all day NS certainly made for gorgeous photos. We went through a lot of farmland and river terrain, and the hike downhill into Annascaul was hell on my ankles and Eric’s knees. But again, we never really noticed the discomfort until the end.
Through wind, rain and rocky terrain, we prevailed on our first official day of inn-to-inn hiking. We took a wrong turn early on, which added an hour to our hike, but it was a beautiful mistake.
