Gap of Dunloe

by | Nov 25, 2008 | Travel

Eric called this one of the top three most scenic drives we’ve done. Considering Chapman’s Peak in South Africa and Going-to-the-Sun Road in Glacier National Park are both on that list, that’s saying quite a lot.

The trek consists of a (mostly) paved road barely wide enough for one car for about 22 kilometers. Each passing of a car going the other direction was an adventure (vast understatement) and in total, it took us about 2 hours. :)

I’ll let Eric’s photos speak for themselves!
