Loop walk Sheeps Head peninsula

So, snow and ice had disappeared and off we went for a walk at the end of the Sheeps head peninsula. Maybe the least well known, but this peninsula should certainly not be overlooked when considering where to go for a nice drive or nice walks in the South West of Ireland. As we had our two girls with us, we walked the 3.5 km loop walk from Tooreen to the lighthouse (hello Virginia, I thought of you today); a walk that is part of the long distance Sheep's Head Way. The views over both Mizen Head to the south and Beara to the north were in one word fantastic... If you have a passion for dramatic skies and huge cliffs and no vertigo, this is the place to be. Whilst little Aoife was asleep in my front carrier for the whole duration of the walk, Sophia walked half of it, and Jos' shoulders are a bit sore I reckon as he carried her the rest of it - why didn't we bring the back carrier for the big lady?!

Have a look at the pictures and enjoy. We did! Once again... This is why we live in Ireland;)!
