Dingle Peninsula Tours - Conor Pass

Conor Pass - Conor Pass tour will take you over the highest mountain pass in Ireland with breathtaking views from the top of Brandon Bay and County Clare in the distance. After seeing lakes and waterfalls, we continue to the beautiful village of Cloghane and then on to the tiny fishing village of Brandon, where the tour stops for a short time and maybe enjoy a drink at the Harbour Pub.The Connor Pass road is undoubtedly the most dramatic route to take, though it is not suitable for heavy vehicles or caravans. As it swings towards the south it rises at the side of a large valley formed by glaciers that came from a semi-circle of coums or corries in the surrounding mountains. From the top of the pass there are breathtaking views in fine weather of lowlands, mountains and sea. High vantage points provide the best position from which to take in the sweep of the landscape, and most of the main roads on the peninsula cross mountains at passes.

Cloghane and Brandon - are situated on the northern side of the Dingle Peninsula, tucked in at the base of Mount Brandon and washed by the sparkling surf of Brandon Bay, the Cloghane - Brandon region is surely one of the great beauty spots of the world. Here an exhilarating blend of mountain, sea and sky entice the visitor to linger, often longer than planned.
