For something big you have to be in Ireland. The Wild Atlantic Way is Ireland's first long distance route for cars and the longest, marked coastal route in the world. The route stretches along the west coast of County Donegal in the north to Cork in southern Ireland.

Along the route you will discover several nature areas, such as Connemara, The Burren, Galway Bay and Kerry. In total you'll pass 156 lookout points and numerous cultural and historical attractions and this is accompanied by the rough roar of the Atlantic Ocean and the cordiality of the people of Ireland.

You can discover these experiences among other things:
• Magic in the Donegal-tweed,
• A traditional seaweed bath,
• Look for wild food along the coast of Killala,
• The cable car to the last sunset of Europe.
