Gap of Dunloe Ireland

On May 8, 2025 we took a Jaunting Car ride through the Gap of Dunloe. It was a great experience through very stunning country. The ride was a little more bouncy than we anticipated. But we made it through. Gap of Dunloe runs north–south between the Old Red Sandstone mountain ranges of the MacGillycuddy's Reeks (to the west) and the Purple Mountain Group (to the east). The north–south road through The Gap as the area is also known, goes from Kate Kearney's Cottage in the north, to the highest point at the Head of the Gap at 241 metres (791 feet),[1] and down to Lord Brandon's Cottage in the Black Valley in the south. The road from Kate Kearney's Cottage to Lord Brandon's Cottage is 11 kilometres (7 miles) in length, with 200 metres (650 feet) in total elevation change.[1] Within The Gap are five lakes (from north to south): Coosaun Lough, Black Lake, Cushnavally Lake, Auger Lake, and Black Lough. The lakes are connected by the River Loe. Between the first two, Coosaun Lough and Black Lake is the Wishing Bridge on which it is said that wishes made while upon it are destined to come true.[11][12] The stone bridge at the northern end of Augher Lake and the stone bridge at the northern end of Black Lough are also lookout points.
