The Ring Of Beara | Walking The Beara Way in Ireland
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 лип 2024
- The Beara Way runs for 206km around the Beara peninsula in the South West of Ireland. The circular loop is often started (and ended) in the coastal town of Glengarriff, sitting on the edge of Bantry Bay. It encompasses dramatic mountains, rugged coasts, wind-swept islands, awe-inspiring views, pristine lakes, profound archaeological sites and so much more.
Abbie walked the Way with Hillwalk Tours in August 2019 on their 11-day challenging itinerary and in this video they share the highs and lows of their times on the trail. Please note that there are shorter and more gentle routes available via the Hillwalk Tours website: www.hillwalktours.com/hiking-...

Stay WILD!
Excellent Abbie. I like the fact that you took the time out to ensure the Collie dog was ok. 👍
You know Abbie, I watch alot of these hiking videos but I really think yours are the best.
They not only are a guide of where to go walking, but also an insight into the spirit of the landscape, its history, wildlife and people.
You passion, enthusiasm and occasional vulnerability make this such a great watch.
Inspired to go walking in Ireland now.
Great work.
"Oh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person; having neither to weigh thoughts, nor measure words, but to pour them all out, just as they are, chaff and grain together, knowing that a faithful hand with take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and then, with a breath of kindness, blow the rest away." Poem by Dinah Craik
take the words out from my heart... Thank you Simon Nowiz
If this was your first visit to Ireland you have had only a glimpse...so much more hiking to be done along the Wild Atlantic Way from Cork through Kerry, Clare, Galway, Mayo, Sligo, and Donegal..........all beauty of Counties with their oiwn special areas of interest.......love your videos, keep them coming.
Felt the same way about the doggie. So glad you followed up ❤
As someone who grew up in Cork City and who is the administrator for the FB group Beautiful Cork Images (photography group portraying the beauty of County Cork), I want to thank you first and foremost. What a magnificent vlog portraying a peninsula (mostly in Cork) in such a beautiful way. Also, well done to you always appearing in good spirits whatever the conditions and weather and your vlog, though long was extremely absorbing throughout. You maintain interest with your enthusiasm and whatever is going on in your head is not reflected in the buoyant, vibrant delivery and eagerness for new places and challenges. Well done. I am a fan. Keep the faith and self belief as you have no reason to doubt.
Hey Abbie!, well this was arguably one of your best, thoroughly enjoyed every moment visually and was completely engaged by your ever more professional commentary, outstanding! One thing I do know is that if I were a stray animal I would want to be found by a human like Abbie Barnes, the compassion and instant commitment to the dog's well being was very moving and heart warming. And then to top it all you treat us to a delightful piece on the penny whistle!.......are there no limits to your talents and capabilities ?! You thoroughly deserve all the praise you receive.
thank you very much for what you have done about the dog, you are very kind ❤
This is AWESOME! When you stopped to play your flute it was the best!! Stay true to yourself and stay wild abbey♥️💯🙌
Flute!!!.... Flute!!!... Ti's a penny whistle sir, not even in the same class of musicianship, anyone can play flute. Regards.
Steve Parkinson lol i wasnt sure what it was called🤣🙌 tyvm for the name of it🙂
Anyone able to advise on what key of tinwhistle a beginner should go with? Tia.
You have a very kind heart Abbie, bless your soul...
I enjoy your choice of hikes... and your narratives. I'm a 62 year old pastor and business owner... and a survivor of cancer and depression. I'm section hiking the Florida Trail and the Appalachian Trail. You have inspired me to add some European hikes to my bucket list.
This was gorgeous Abbie, I can't believe 2 hours went by so fast watching this. It's made me want to visit Ireland even more.
Thank you for taking us along with you :)
Abbie,superb adventure,indeed!Relished it from start to finish.Your kindness towards that lovely dog melts hearts!You are a truly amazing person.The final moments of the video and your touching speech made me feel emotional and tearful in a positive way.God bless you
Abbie you should have your own tv presenting programme,you make your travels so interesting and a fantastic voice for tv and great attitude to life,you are so inspiring so well done 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻thank you so much
@1.20.58 Gandalf!! ☑🤠💫🏞 loved the tin whistle also! 🎼🎼🎼🥳
Calm and beautiful landscape with nice human being, it's like my soul have been healed.
What an amazing video of an amazing hike! My best friend and I walked the Beara Way last June and enjoyed 8 days of the gentle tour. Breathtaking sceneries, absolutely wonderful people and loads of stories to tell when we got back home. Abbie, you captured everything beautifully on this video, even the bogs. We remember, oh how we remember! ;-) And kudo's to you for looking after that dog. Bless you!
Love Glengarriff and the Beara Peninsula, but few are as intrepid and as fearless of you Abbie. Those bogs are a real challenge, and if paths are marked out to encourage walkers they should be made accessible. Otherwise, it's no fun to get stuck in a bog. I think the Dingle Peninsula is dry by comparison. The mountains are higher with more drainage. But, there are bogs too. Love your tin whistle playing.
Got to say you lifted my spirit with that jig and made me feel right there with you. Well done! Thank you for another brilliant movie.
loved the tin whistle solo...you have mastered that tune. thank you. thank you too for taking me to parts of beautiful Ireland that i may never get to see. Bless your ramblings Abbie.
Hi, Abbie! Still really enjoying your adventures and will send you a comment from time to time so you know your fans are actually out here! Lol! Thanks for including us in your travels! 😎
You picked a good trail to walk. The Caha Mountains are some of the most stunning and other worldly ones we have. 😊
Just fantastic, and inspirational. You’re a great walking companion. I’ve been devouring your long hike videos.
I’ve been married into the Irish for more than 2 decades and I know these vast impressive landscapes, but to see them revealed like this on your walk... the landscapes, then your reaction to them.You really are good at this. And it has a cycle path, you say? I can imagine myself doing this.
Talking to yourself is the only intelligent conversation you can have. Love your videos, currently binging.
Love these films, I love how you upload the whole thing together and not in stupid parts haha
Excalibur!! Love the flute playing!
You are a truly beautiful soul, Abbie. Thank you for sharing your playfulness, your compassion, your ups and your downs with us. And, of course, for sharing Ireland with us as well! :-)
I’ll be watching this tonight but I’m sure it’s another master piece
I used to hike many years ago now I'm retiring your great vlogs have given me the urge to get my kit down from the loft buy some new boots and get out there again .
Cheers mate happy trails
I've lived in West Cork 20 years now and find the place very gloomy, but your passion and enthusiasm cheered me up and hopefully help me survive another winter (smart idea to come hiking in 'summer'!). Brilliant filming/editing as well. Bless you & thanks!
Brilliant video abbie i watched every minute of it , i do hope you back some day to Ireland you are allways welcome , and thank you for talking about mental health its so important, respect and love to you from Ireland ❤👍😊❤
Loved the film Abbie. I was really looking forward to this one and it was great, thanks.
Abbie ' Went into store to buy some fruit and came out with a scone' I think we all have done that at some point :)
Scone or Fruit ,. SCONE😁
This brightened my day (as usual). Thanks, Abbie!
You made a great video there. The Ring of Beara is fantastic. However, my wife and I opened it up by car in 2 weeks. It was incredibly beautiful. I'm getting longing.
Thank you so much for this beautiful treat. The Beara Way is definitely going on my Bucket list. Thank you for following up on on the beautiful and kind dog. You are awesome!, and so are your videos,,,Thank you
Love your videos Abbie! I just recently found your channel. Keep up the great job. Keeping you in prayer!
This was wonderful Abbie! Your tin whistle skills are excellent! OMG though the poor collie dog that was tied to the fence was hard to watch. That poor bloody dog! Thank you for being such a fabulous human and for the excellent content and magical hiking.
Thanks for another great video Abbie. Thoroughly enjoyed watching it. 👍👍👍
Living the dream. Superb video & super inspired as always. Absolutely Love these long films. ❤
Love these films - I like the way you give info about the places and it almost feels like I’m walking with you 😁
Loved it Abbie!! I’ve never been to Ireland but it does look stunning and hopefully I’ll get to go one day! The highlight was definitely the Irish jig on the tin whistle, put a smile on my face 😁. Thanks for sharing with us all 👍🏻😊
Brilliant! So many memories. Collie dog, Bogs. Fantastic vistas. Wonderful mountains. Beautiful bays and lochs. What a walk. One I've never heard of but am so glad you took me along. A million thanks for the great film and the tin whistle - what more can be said!
Absolutely loved this film, Ireland is truly beautiful. I have travelled mainly along the east coast and can highly recommend that too! Keep up the outstanding work Abbie.
Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant. Absolutely your best film to date, I loved it. Started watching this before I went to work in the morning and couldn’t wait to get home to finish watching. Btw that tweed hat really suited you and your tin whistle playing is the best!
Thank you for all of your amazing videos Abbie. The Irish landscape looks so rugged, it's quite spectacular.
Thank you, Abbie. I'd been looking forward to this one. All the best!
Well done Abbie, I think that this is one of your best so far !! See you in the hills x
Hey Abbie, thanks for sharing really enjoy you travels.
Wonderful vid Abbie. Your compassion towards the dog and the tin whistle jig, brilliant. The scenery is amazing, you've made me want to do that walk for sure.
Wonderful video. Beautiful views, so informative and eloquently narrated. Love your spirit, resilience, and optimism, Abbie!
Abbie, what amazing movie this is! Thanks so much for taking us along. And thanks for all the work you put into it - filming, editing,... I loved the landscape and the rock formations, the green, the grey and the... pink sheep 😀 The tin whistle soundtrack was cool, too. Liked it! 👍
Great film Abbie. Me and the wife have been binge watching your videos over the past couple of weeks. Keep up the good work!
Thank you again for taking us along on a great walk!
Dear Abbie, I thoroughly enjoyed this excellent video! Maybe my favorite of yours. Thank you & Happy Trails :-)
Wow, finally got round to watching the video Abbie. So many brilliant moments to enjoy like the almost 'Dodo' video dog moment to the lovely Tin whistle to the awesome finale - The Ring of Kerry? So many magical moments and potentially the Ring of Kerry walk to look forward to in the future. Great video once again. Stay Wild! :)
Thank you for your inspirations, delivered in such uplifting way.
Well done, Abbie! So very enjoyable and educational! Thank you, as always, for sharing your adventure with me!
Hi Abbie, thank you very much for making this very nice video, i walked the beara way in 2017 and watching your video made me feel i was back out there for a moment!
What a beautiful walk! I would love to do this one when I return to Ireland. Loved your jig as well! Great job!
Fantastic scenery abbie. You have a fantastic amount of energy,, you have me worn out just watching you💖👍stay safe and enjoy
Your video's are always amazing, thanks for sharing.
Half way through Abbie and I must say what a fantastic piece of film making, the skills it takes to put all of this together are considerable and you did a brilliant job. Keep up the good work.
Thankyou for sharing your journey Abbie. I share your sentiments about such a walk being a metaphor for life. I feel this way so often after a difficult walk. We drove around the Ring of Beara in 1996, so in comparison to your own journey, it was just a glimpse - but we loved the place.
Not long found your channel and I must say your a real inspiration beautiful upbeat and knowledgable woman keep up the fantastic work thank you and well done
An amazing journey, I laughed and cried. Loved the Irish Jig. What a stunning landscape. Thank you do much for taking us with you x
Loved this, I’ve spent a lot of time in this area, brought back great memories
Thank you - wonderful & fully life affirming - great work on the tin whistle!
Really loved this, did some walking along the Kerry way in November a couple of years ago, took all manner of wet gear with me, it never rained once and was very warm! lol, was blessed with beautiful scenery and amazing places. Thank you for all your hard work in making this Vlog for us to enjoy, truly inspiring.
Dear Abbie, the video was great! Thanks a lot for this! I also hiked it in 2013 and will run this route again in October! Thank you also for taking care of the dog! I have left you a subscription and will watch your older films little by little! Greetings from Germany Viola
You are so beautiful!! Thank you Abbie for taking us along for another amazing adventure. Smashed that Like button when I saw the move that the fairies do.
This made me want to get back to Ireland. This time I think I need to do some hiking! Thank you for this.
This brings back good memories to our 1998 Beara Way trip. Dursey Island is still mystical and splendid. I was forgotten how muddy some parts of the trail were. We stayed all in all three nights in Allihies where we fully enjoyed Irish music.
Wow. Superb walk and scenery well done Abbie. Love it x
I really enjoy your videos. Thank you x
Ring of Beara added to bucket list.......great video as usual Abbie.
You are awesome! I’m enjoying this so much! Beautiful and I love your narration.
Amazing and beautiful film abbie x
this is such a beautiful video and your honesty is very moving
Hi Abbie, really glad you enjoyed yourself. I enjoyed your piece.
Be sure to come back and see us again.
great video awesome scenery well presented as usual Abbie look forward to mondays now thank you x
Loved this! Definitely adding to my bucket list! Love that you helped the dog.
And now I need to go find my tin whistle. 🙂
That is a very long one, woow ! Thanks Abbie
This is a great video Abbie! I really enjoyed watching your walk and feel quite inspired to follow in your footsteps. Thank you for looking after that poor dog. Not sure I have your penny whistle skills either ;-) Thank you for sharing this video
Fantastic. And inspirational. We did a field trip there as undergrads and stayed at Bantry bay.
Thanks for posting
I want to thank you for taking me out of snowy Idaho to muddy Ireland. Too beautiful and great message. Thank you Abbie and thanks for the tin whistle tune. You are truly special.
Your the best..... I feel like getting up and going out.... Keeping the video for tonight on the big TV, thanks buddy
Lovely video. Thank you Abbie
Enjoyed every minute of your walk!
Brilliant video Abbie, your keeping me entertained during this lockdown, stay positive and stay healthy 👍
Definitely one for my bucket list. Thanks Abbie
Amazing trail & a fine post thanks Abbie.....had to play your jig a few times....excellent playing..
Love your videos because you show the reality of up times and low times as well. Not just the instagram ideals. The tid bits of education you provide are great and I love learning some of the history. You are encouraging me to get out and about in my own area and plan for some future trips farther out. Your tin whistle playing was FABULOUS!! Love and good wishes!
Thank you so much for producing and sharing these videos.
Hi. I seem to be working my way through your walks lately. I've not seen much of Ireland by other hikers I watch and this was a real treat to see. Such awesome scenery and wildlife.
You had me bopping with the pipe aswel. Mint.
Mant thanks.
Just treated myself by casting this to the telly. Brilliant Abbie! Thank you for sharing.
Other Vloggers might have clipped this into sections to have more ads and such...but not you! Watching this was like being with a friend for a comfortable afternoon. I wished I could have seen more about your accommodations and how you packed for food. One day you mentioned that you hadn't eaten since breakfast! Loved the tin flute concert: such talent. I have one, and it inspires me. Good job you!
Thanks so much Abbie!
Thank you for making this video Abbie.
Ive just found your channel! I love it ❤ walking is great for mental health 🙂
