Van links naar rechts: Vissers keren terug in Connemara, Café cultuur, Keem Bay Road, Mayo, Prachtige stranden in het westen

Het westen van Ierland is een betoverende plek vol sfeervolle stadjes en dorpen, uitgestrekte kustlijnen, steile zeekliffen, een prachtig platteland met een unieke, verlaten schoonheid en een levend cultureel erfgoed, rijk aan traditie. 

Met de graafschappen  Clare, Donegal, Galway, Leitrim, Limerick, Mayo, Roscommon, Sligo, Offaly en  Tipperary, krijgt het westen als geen andere plek ter wereld bezoekers in zijn ban en staat het garant voor een ongeëvenaarde ervaring.

Onder de dramatische landschappen van Donegal bevinden zich het betoverende Glenveagh National Park and Castle. Het graafschap Sligo, waar de schrijver Yeats opgroeide, is te bewonderen vanaf de vlakke top van de berg Ben Bulben. Of u kunt de boot nemen naar de magische Aran Islands in het graafschap Galway of het Achill Island in het graafschap Mayo.

Wie van grote hoogten houdt, zal een wandeling lang de fenomenale Cliffs of Moher in het graafschap Clare een hele belevenis vinden! Het wat lager gelegen, pittoreske Lough Key Forest Park in Roscommon vormt een zee van rust. De legendarische schoonheid van de majesteitelijke Shannon-rivier strekt zich uit over de graafschappen Leitrim, Offaly en Limericken beneemt u letterlijk de adem.

Het zuiden telt maar liefst vijf regionale luchthavens, dus stap voor uw vakantie op het vliegtuig naar Shannon, Galway, Knock, Donegal of het vliegveld vlak bij de stad Derry. Of u nu graag de rust opzoekt van een verlaten eiland of zich liever in de drukte van een gezellig zomerfestival stort - het wilde, wonderschone westen heeft het allemaal.

Wist u dat?

In de 16de eeuw was de vrouwelijke zeerover Grace O’Malley de onbetwiste koningin van de West-Ierse wateren. Maar liefst 50 jaar duurde haar heerschappij. Ze beviel zelfs op volle zee van haar jongste zoon terwijl haar schip door Noord-Afrikaanse piraten werd geënterd.
