Ireland is one of the most beautiful countries. This entire area is stunning.

This and the Dingle Peninsula, we’re some of my favorite places to explore when I went to Ireland.

I may be biased as I grew up only about a 20 minute drive from Dingle, but I truly believe that the Dingle Peninsula and the Ring of Kerry are the most beautiful places on earth

Been there. The whole Wicklow Mountains area is amazingly beautiful. Wild heather, gorgeous lakes, winding roads…. Damn I need to go back.

Actually, a lot of scenes set in Kattegat from Vikings were shot there or very close to this place.

Honestly heaps of places around Ireland look like they were ripped straight out of LotR - the whole Wicklow Mountains SAC, the area in the south west in co. Kerry, and pretty much every SAC along the west coast. Really pretty country.

Oh I loved visiting Glendalough when I lived in Dublin. Always took my friends there who were visiting. Beautiful picture, thanks for sharing!

We only spent a few days in Dublin once, but wanted to get out on a day trip. The most popular seemed to be Moher, but when I read that ten hours would be spent on a bus in a single day I decided to look for something closer. Went here instead and it was honestly incredible, best decision ever. Howth also lived up to the hype!

Thank you so much for sharing this photo. It brings back so many happy memories of a visit my (late) husband and I made to Ireland, and this exact spot, back in 2002.

Born and raised not far from this pic. It really is as beautiful as you'd think. The surrounding area too.

In this picture are 47 people. None of them can be seen. In this film, we hope to show you how not to be seen.

It appears to have been windy when this photo was taken. That would not be uncommon for this area.

The hike around upper lake is amazing. The gnats around upper lake, not so much. Was there for a wedding and an hour in we all looked like we had measles :P

Wasn't so bad on Sunday when I was there, too cold for them yet. There were a few mountain goats about.

ZeeDrakon t1_jboyihe wrote

We hiked after the last bus leaves to avoid the school tours and there were tons of goats around! They were surprisingly cool with us ^^

What is the bottom forbidden sign, under the yellow one, prohibiting? Almost looks like the Loch Ness Monster on it :D

Toro8926 OP t1_jbs1tg2 wrote

I think it's a no swimming sign. It drops off at the shore and there is no lifeguard on duty

Ah, so not so far from Loch Ness then if I with my body shape would enter the water.
