Fantastic self-guided walking in Southwest Ireland

Ireland | Apr 13 - Apr 19, 2026

We had an ideal self-guided walking trip in southwest Ireland thanks to Kimkim connecting us with Ireland Walk, Hike, Bike. Dean Garrison from that company tailored 5 days of walking that perfectly suited our interests and abilities. We had superb communication with Dean as he tweaked the itinerary in response to our input. The transfers between hotels were flawless—all the drivers were really wonderful people. The hotels were wonderful, and the food at the Brook Lane in Kenmare was a special treat. When we had to modify the last day of hiking, Dean’s colleague Katie gave us instant support, suggesting not just one alternative option but three. We are already dreaming of coming back for another week of walking in Ireland. Truly, an amazing experience!
