Resumen

The Gap of Dunloe is located south west of Killarney, in County Kerry. It is an area of great importance to Cork and Kerry climbers as it offers many great routes at a good spread of grades, lengths and styles. The friction is generally excellent as is the quality of the rock and the setting is hard to beat. Despite all this it is a relatively quiet venue and as such, information on the climbing here is scarce.

Restricciones

The Gap of Dunloe is very popular with tourists. During the summer especially, jarveys take groups up and down the valley in their horse drawn carts. Because the road is so narrow traffic between oncoming cars and horses can become surprisingly congested. Please be courteous to the jarveys and consider parking at Kate Kearney‟s car park and walking from here (it only takes 10 minutes).

Alojamiento

Camping can be had at the Dunloe Golf Course, which is a 3 minute drive from the Gap. Plenty of other options are available locally, Killarney being one of the biggest tourist towns in the country. Kate Kearney‟s Cottage is a charming pub very conveniently situated for some post-climbing food and drink. There are plenty of climbing pictures on the walls and music is played weekly

Ética

A good relationship between climbers and locals is essential. Please do not litter in the Gap. Bring home whatever you bring with you, including fruit peels, climbing tape and cigarette butts.
