  • Irland Zählt Zu Den Schönsten Reisezielen Europas
    Irland zählt zu den schönsten Reisezielen Europas. Scheinbar immergrüne Landschaften wechseln sich mit den kargen Felsformationen im Burren­Gebiet und der reizvollen Connemara­Region ab. Die Rei­ Irland se führt auch immer wieder an den „Wild Atlantic Way“ und damit zu den spektakulärsten Küstenab­ schnitten des Landes: dem Ring of Kerry, den Cliffs of Moher und dem Giant´s Causeway. Die „Grüne Wiesen, Klippen, Pints und Kreuze: Insel“ ist gleichermaßen ein Hort der Kultur. Ein „Mile failte“ auf der Grünen Insel langes keltisch­christliches Erbe prägte Land und Leute und spiegelt sich in zahllosen, jahrhunderte­ alten Ausgrabungen, Kirchen und Klosterruinen im ganzen Land wider. Ein besonderer Höhepunkt der Reise ist außerdem der Besuch des Titanic Museums in Belfast, in dem Sie nicht nur mehr über das wohl bekannteste Schiff der Welt, sondern auch über die Menschen und das Leben in dieser Zeit, erfahren! Highlights Reizvolle Städte Belfast, Galway und Cork Unterwegs am Wild Atlantic Way: Irlands schönste Küsten Ulster: Facettenreiches Nordirland Rock of Cashel Irland 12 Tag 4 Letterkenny – Sligo – Connemara – Galway Teils der Strecke des „Wild Atlantic Ways“ folgend, führt unsere Rei­ se durch Donegal, den wildromantischen Nordwesten Irlands. Über Sligo gelangen wir zum Küstenort Westport an der Clew Bay. Hier ragt der 753 m hohe Croagh Patrick, der „heilige Berg Irlands“, un­ vermittelt und weithin sichtbar aus dem Küstenvorland auf. Die Fahrt durch die Region Connemara zeigt uns eine kontrastreiche und ur­ sprünglich anmutende Landschaft, die von Seen, Mooren, Felsen, tief eingeschnittenen Buchten und kahlen Bergkegeln geprägt wird. In weiten Teilen nur sehr dünn besiedelt, wirkt die Connemara bis­ weilen wie ein mystisches Naturparadies.
