I suggested in an earlier post this evening that we all have our own favourite drives, so here goes with just one of mine.
We are blessed with many things in Cork, our roads have to be at the top of the pile!! Below is a nice run for any time of the year.
Exit City heading west on R600, pass the airport and down to Kinsale. Then follow the coast line staying on the R600 as far as Clonakilty and on to Skibbereen, but via Glandore and Union Hall. A quick nip out to Baltimore, back into Skibbereen and on to Ballydehob. Now you have a choice, out to Skull and Mizen Head or head directly for Durrus and on for Kilcrohane, ( don't forget to stop for a moment at the Air India Disaster memorial) and take a while to enjoy Sheep’s Head. Retrace your steps to Kilcrohane, go along Sheeps Head and into Bantry square.
You now have another choice, either head back to Cork City via Kealkil, Coppeen and Crookstown on the R858 or head for Glengarriff and the Beara Peninsula. It just goes on and on and you haven't left the county yet.
Stunning scenery, practically empty roads a lot of the time and not too many pot holes. Enjoy, paulc
