The Wild Atlantic Way & Western Ireland – 6 Cycle Tours along Ireland`s West Coast

The Wild Atlantic Way is a driving route along Ireland`s Atlantic seaboard, covering over 2,350km of coastline and showcasing the region`s breathtaking landscapes. This guide adapts the route for cyclists – and throws in a couple of other highlights (such as the Aran Islands and Killarney) for good measure. Since relatively few people are likely to have seven weeks to spare for a full Wild Atlantic Way tour, the book presents six self-contained cycle tours, each offering 7-10 days of riding. For the full Wild Atlantic Way experience, these distinct routes can be linked together into a 44-stage trip from Derry/Londonderry to Cork.Each route includes detailed advice on accommodation and facilities, plus optional detours and shortcuts and points of interest. The routes themselves are presented as `route cards`: ideal for use with a cycle computer, these pages provide `at a glance` information for when you`re on the road, covering navigation, facilities and local highlights. The guide covers all the practicalities – including transport, equipment and general tips on cycling in Ireland.
