gap of dunloe

我们参加了戴罗思旅游团(Deros),去了邓洛伊峡谷,还乘公共汽车从市中心到凯特卡尼的小屋参观。从那里出发,走了11公里,到达布兰顿勋爵的小屋。我们用了两个半小时,走得非常快。道路是铺好的。汽车、自行车、摩托车和马车都走这条路。与其说这是走路,不如说是徒步攀登,因为途中有好多上坡路。当你走了一半的时候,你必须跟着指示牌找一条船。当你走到一个十字路口的时候,也没有标记告诉你哪一边是布兰顿勋爵的小屋。你就跟着去基拉尼的路标,最后就会看到布兰顿勋爵的小屋。开始,有人跟我们说要坐下午2:15的那班船。但是实际上,我们到布兰顿勋爵的小屋时,那人告诉我们要乘下午2点的船。乘船的时间需要一个半小时。那天实际上有点多云,天气很不错,适合走路。但是,要是在一个晴朗的日子,或许会更暖和。乘船会有些冷,所以一定要穿暖和些。从停车场出来,你可以骑马回镇上,或者如果你订了旅游团,会有货车在那儿等你。总体来说,感觉走了很久的路,而景色一般。如果你时间充裕,应该在来这里观光之前,先去观光凯利指环。

这里的风景很美,而且很容易就能到这里,我们没有走完所有的路,因为有3个小孩子和我们在一起,但是他们也很喜欢这样的旅行。但是我觉得骑自行车的人回来的时候要注意,因为下山的时候车子走的很快,而且路很窄。

我们这次旅行行程一共12公里,其中一部分是坐船。船长很是健谈,很愿意跟我们分享他对当地的认识。这里风景很独特。如果下次我还来的话,我会选择徒步旅行或者骑行。

千万小心这的马车和咖啡馆,他们对我们3个人收费5欧元,但是后来他们却对我们收费40欧元,在我们回来的途中狠狠宰了我们。后来我们才意识到其实整个过程就是在为我们设下了一个陷阱让我们上当受骗。其实整个过程路途不过3英里的距离,但是他们却收费40欧元,我们真是无语了。千万当心这的骗局。

漂亮的风景——从Kate Kearney小屋走到Galwey桥的老Kenmare路感觉很棒。一共用了三个半小时,其中包括在Lord Brandon小屋吃了一个小时午餐——走完两个半小时后,在这停留一下感觉很棒。

During a trip through the Ring of Kerry we visited the Gap of Dunloe. Yes, a long drive, but the sight-seeing is beyond breathtaking. Something you never see in the US. We enjoyed making a day of the Ring. Pack a lunch (or stop somewhere local along the way), dress comfortably, make sure you have plenty of disk space for pictures, and plan on making numerous stops. You don't have to stop, but how can you not!! We enjoyed every minute of it. Even our 3 yr old had fun on the adventure!

We had just started the Ring of Kerry when we saw the sign for the Gap of Dunloe. We thought it would only take a few minutes, but it ended up being 1.5-2 hours to explore the crazy tight roads but it was all worth it. Even in the rain and fog, the area is beautiful and inspiring. And yes there are sheep everywhere. We ended up missing the Ring of Kerry because it took so much time to find the Gap but we don't regret the crazy adventure!

We drove the Gap of Dunloe during our 8 day holiday in Ireland. Because it was the off season we were able to drive through and there was almost no one else along the road. It was incredible views and driving the road was like a roller coaster in itself. Seeing the sheep on the sides of the roads was so cool. We drove through the Black Valley and the farmers in the area were burning the briars so the sheep didn't hurt their feet. There was no warning and it was very close to the road. It was quite dangerous but we didn't mind because it was a great story to tell!

Its a great drive throiugh the gap as the road winds in amongst the mountains, (they may not be tall relative to say the Himalyas, but they are sure mountains when your in them!) and many lakes.The drive is worth it, biking or wlaking even would be better. Do be careful, as the road past Kate Kearny's cottage is narrow, sometimes VERY narrow. Also, on the weekends after 12:30, the kitchen at Kate Kearnys cottage is open and is a good place to have a good meal.

If you have a gap in your life, check this out. As gaps go,this is big. Mountains, sheep, bridges, lakes and a pub! Your gap is lame.

The way to do the Ring of Kerry is amazing, this part is very beautiful. If you visit Killarney you MUST visit this place,

This is a must see. However, it is best to rent a car and drive through yourself during the off season. You may get a little lost, but that's the fun of it :). During the busy season you should take the horse and buggies because of the narrow roads. I don't think any bus tours travel through here.

Incredible place, take the time and visit the Gap but use the Jaunting car. As with everything to experience in Ireland, give yourself enough time to appreciate the journey

A must see if visiting Killarney. Fabulous walks for all levels. Great food in Kate Kearneys Cottage. Great value.

The Gap of Dunloe is an experience that well worth the trip. You can drive (but it can be hazardous, you don't want any scraps on hired cars) or take the Jaunting cars (house drawn open carriage) through the Gap a nice slow ride taking in the scenery which is breath taking.
