 Walking The Sheep’s Head

Join us Hill Walking on the Sheep’s Head Peninsula.

Hillside Walks are located 12km South West of Bantry on the shores of Bantry Bay. Our West Cork Hill Walking Holidays and Bantry Bed and Breakfast are situated in the heart of the Sheeps Head Peninsula with the Beara and Mizen Peninsulas to the north and south respectively. This beautiful quite place is a world away from the rat race, it allows you to relax and unwind and is an ideal base for a walking holiday – the best way to explore one of the least known peninsulas along the Irish coastline and enjoy its tranquillity, beauty and rugged landscape lapped by the Atlantic Ocean. There are few more beautifully located or more delightful walks in the whole of Ireland.

sheepsheadlogoThe Sheep’s Head Way is a fully way marked 88km/55mile route and is ideal for self-guided walking with many loop walk facilities for those who wish to vary their route. There are a number of historical and archaeological monuments to be found amidst a spectacular landscape of mountains and sea. You will also have the chance to encounter an array of rare wild flowers, view the dolphins in the bay and take some time to acquaint yourself with some interesting bird life. The terrain varies as you progress along the route that usually goes out o­n the Bantry Bay side of the peninsula along a wide open rocky ridge with good vegetation cover. However there are wet patches as you progress to the lighthouse at the end of the peninsula. You return o­n the Dunmanus Bay side along gentler, low level farmland, moor and close knit villages. The average length of the walks each day is between 15 and 22 km’s with the highest point being 345m. Please note each walk can be tailored to suit your individual ability.
