Hello fellow travelers,
I am planning a trip to Ireland and Scotland from mid-may to mid-june.
I really wanted to do a 5-day (or so) hiking trip in one of these destinations.
I was initially looking at the Kerry or the Dingle way, but then I researched the Scottish Highlands and I can't decide where to do so. Either way, I will be going to Ireland and Scotland.
I have about two weeks in each destination, and the people who are taking this trip with me are all in very good shape so the hiking difficulty is not really a problem.
Has anyone done both of these hikes? I know that we won't have enough time do do the whole hike, but we want to see the most we can in our short time there.
Any advice about where to go?
Thank you so much!
Have a great day everyone!
