Hello, I've read that almost 50% of the Dingle Way is on small roads. Can you tell me if most are paved? I've also read that there's a decent chunk on beaches. Are the trails on the beaches easy to walk on or deep sand? Thanks, Susan
A:
I did not do the full Dingle Way hike, but the parts that I were on were all paved. And the beach areas that I walked were easy to walk.

Q:
I would like to walk 3-4 days on the Dingle Way early July. I can manage up to 15 miles/day, but don't mind shorter days if there are great diversions. Which section would you undertake? I am thinking of starting in Dingle and then heading clockwise. Thoughts?
A:
Hey, Yes clockwise is a good idea - you could walk from Tralee to Dingle in 3 days, stopping in Camp and Annascaul along the way. It's between 11 and 13 miles for each of these …

Hey, Yes clockwise is a good idea - you could walk from Tralee to Dingle in 3 days, stopping in Camp and Annascaul along the way. It's between 11 and 13 miles for each of these sections so not too short or not too long! I actually work for a hiking company called Hillwalk Tours and would really recommend the Dingle Way - it's a great way to see authentic Ireland :)

Q:
Hi, I would appreciate hearing about the descent from the arm of Brandon Mountain on the Dingle Way walk. Specifically, just how bad is it in poor weather? What is the alternate route if one avoids that section? I've done the Coast to Coast in the UK three times so am familiar with steep descents using poles. Thank you.

Hi, I am seeing your question for the first time tonight. Do you still need info on this? My initial thought is it is similar to Lake District in bad weather. Very steep and slippery. They …
