The Kerry Way, Ireland: Caherdaniel to Waterville
On yet another sunny day (Ireland was displaying it's best weather), Nancy Moran drove us from Moran's Seaside Farmhouse in Bunavalla, up the road to where The Kerry Way continues. Today's section was a high and easy coastal route with glorious coast views out towards the Skellig Islands and Ballinskelligs Bay.
There were also many interesting markers along the way; an old horse path; a deserted cottage where a piper heard fairy music; and a final stretch along the road into busy Waterville.
Klondyke House B&B (owned by Cirean Morris) is located along the main road in Waterville and was our accommodation tonight. Suitcases had already been delivered and Klondyke House was yet another lovely B&B with hospitable owner who gave eating recommendations and what to see in Waterville.
Hiking the Kerry Way | Day 24 Walking Around Ireland
Hiking the Kerry Way continues to blow my mind. I am now enroute to the Dingle Peninsula !
Thank you so much to my two sponsors @BDifferent and @ElkRecruitment :)
Also, Huge thanks to the kind souls who have “bought me a coffee” (link below) as a tip for making these videos - you are the BEST :)
About the Walk - I am hiking from Dublin to the Great Blasket Islands in Co. Kerry. I will be sleeping in a tent and it will take approx 30 days to complete the 600km+ journey. Most of this trail is known as “Coast to Coast” but I have always had a fascination and urge to pitch my tent on the Great Blasket Island which is why I will head north upon reaching Killarney.
And in case you might be asking yourself, I am walking around Ireland because I really enjoy walking.

Greenan Maze is set amidst the beautiful Wicklow hills on a pretty countryside farm. With two mazes, three museums, nature walks, woodlands, ponds, wildlife, farm animals, play areas, treasure hunt and fairy tree walk, there is plenty of fun for all ages. Families enjoy spending the day and The Irish Times designated it a Heritage Hotspot “it’s an antidote to urban living within easy reach of Dublin. The two metre high hedge maze and gentler solstice maze with stone circles are fun for all ages and the barn and bottle museum offer a look at farming in former times, as does the farmhouse museum with its traditional furniture and utensils”. The treasure hunt and fairy tree trail are great fun activities for kids but the large hedge maze is the highlight of most peoples day…..getting lost in the maze finds the kid in everyone. The craft shop sells hand made crafts, local and global crafts, antique bottles, gifts and environmentally friendly stationery and has a coffee dock and snacks available. The tea-rooms are open for busy periods and make home made cakes and goodies.
Greenan Maze host events throughout the year and group tours for all ages including Primary School Tours, Transition Year Bio-diversity Tours, Language School Tours, Kids Parties, BBQ’s and Corporate Family days out.
