Connemara Antics! 🤍 Throwback to a wild weeken Connemara Antics! 🤍

Throwback to a wild weekend out Weshtt with @theoutoutclub a few weeks ago! 

When your weekend consists of sea swims, sunshine (and wind and…rain #OnlyInIreland😂), hikes, selfies, sightseeing, good food and great company you know it’s been a good one! 🥰🥾💃☔️

Here’s what we got up to: 

SWIM: Dog’s Bay Beach - a must when you’re out WESHT! Such a  beautiful beach for walks and dips. 😍

HIKE: Diamond Hill in Connemara National Park. It is a marked trail, it’s a strenuous hike (7km in total) and it takes approx. 3 hours to complete. The views are unreal on a clear day. We didn’t have the best weather conditions so I’ll definitely be going back for round two!🥾☀️

SIGHTSEEING / FOREST WALK: Kylemore Abbey - There’s a few different forest trail options on the grounds. Entry is €16. There’s also a really nice cafe next to the Abbey. 🍃

LUNCH: Veldons Seafarer Bar & Restaurant. We had lunch here after our hike. It’s a cosy pub and they have a really nice lunch menu. 🐟

DINNER: Mannion’s in Clifton. We stayed in Clifton so the location was perfect. The staff were lovely, there was a great atmosphere and the mussels were so good ( I may have stolen a few from @katieclrke👀) 😂

Walk the Line 2023 🥾🥾

About last Saturday…! I hiked 22km with @theoutoutclub to raise funds for @dublinwicklowmrt! 🤍

A hike from day to night for a great cause and with the best bunch of women. We were spoilt with epic weather, an unreal sunset, a buzzing atmosphere and from start to finish and we had the most DELISH burgers waiting for us at the finish line. I mean…what more could you want? 😍😅

An evening/night of chats, choons, steps, s’mores, pizza Doritos (thanks to @alimilne 👀) and a lot of unidentified floating heads! 👽🔦

A 6 hour hike, 1 pulled muscle and 32,000 steps later….we did it! I’ve never been so happy to see a ‘Finish’ banner! 🤣

Happiness level when we reached the finish line at 22.25? Let’s just say I might as well have just summited Mount Everest. 😂👌🏼 So proud of everyone who took part! @theoutoutclub 🤗

Shoutout to @walktheline.event and @dublinwicklowmrt for the best day/night out. Such a great event from start to finish. Literally! Roll on Walk the Line 2024! 🔥 #WalktheLine2023

This day last week I said goodbye to my little man This day last week I said goodbye to my little man! 

My heart is broken but my boy can finally rest. He fought a great fight right to the end.

Words cannot describe how much happiness and joy he brought to my life over the last fifteen and a half years. He was by my side from the day I carried him home and he put a smile on my face every day since. 

I’ll never forget each and every little adventure we had: especially our sunrise walkies at Bull Island and our sunset dips at Killiney beach. 

I miss his big contagious smile, his loving cuddles, his waggy tail and his unusually big ‘Dobby the house elf’ ears. I miss our staring matches (he would win every time). I miss him snoring beside me during our movie and popcorn nights. Ozzy loved his snoozes! I am beyond grateful for every day I got to spend with him. 🤍

Ozzy was more than just a dog. He was my family, my best friend and he was my rock. 

Sleep well Sir Oz! 😔♥️

Italy Road Trip: P.4 Lake Garda: Hike Idea 📍 Italy Road Trip: P.4 

Lake Garda: Hike Idea

📍Punta Larici 

I mean seriously, how incredible are those views? 😍 This hiking route is between Lake Garda and the Ledro Valley. At 907 metres you’ll find the most INSANE lake views from the top. 🤍

The path is about 8.6km long, it’s an out and back trail and it will take you approx. 3.5-4 hours in total. 

Starting point: Pregasina, a village perched above Lake Garda at an altitude of 532 m.

What you’ll see at the top: views of Riva del Garda, Torbole, Monte Brione and Malcesine to the southern side with Sirmione. The path is easy enough and it has a limited exposure. 

Tip: if you’re planning on doing this hike during the summer months hit the road early when it’s still cool. We left early enough but we were still dying from the heat so the earlier the better! 😅😂

If you want a guide I would recommend 
@mmove_into_nature. Our tour guide was so nice. We were chatting the whole way up and down. 🥰

Ps. There’s a really cute cafe with (even more) amazing views when you get back down to Pregasina. You can’t miss it. We stopped off here for some well deserved cold drinks! 😂🥤

We absolute must-see lakes…

Lago di Landro 🤍

When you accidentally come across the most beautiful lake on the side of the road….! We were on our way to the famous Lake Misurina (the largest natural lake in the Cadore) when we spotted Lago di Landro The Dürrensee) hidden on the side of the road. 

Lago di Misurina 🤍 

A must-see! Just saying. Check out my highlight for a sneak peek. It is the largest natural lake in the Cadore.😍

Lago di Tenno 🤍

Swipe 👉 another beautiful lake in Trentino to tick off the bucket list. Look at the colour of the water. Just wow! 🤍

Who is planning a trip to Italy this summer? 😍

Italy Series: P.2🤍 When you find the most incr Italy Series: P.2🤍

When you find the most incredible lake hidden at the top of a mountain…! 

Dolomites Hike Idea: Lago di Sorapis Loop.

The hike to Lago di Sorapis is one I won’t forgot anytime soon. It was a particularly hot day when we went (middle of summer) so it was an extra tough climb 🥵but the lake/mountain views at the top made it totally worth it! 😅

We made it to Lago di Sorapis in approximately 3 hours. I’ve never seen anything like it. Blue skies, snow and the most breathtaking ice blue lake!

* Start Point: Passo Tre Croci, Belluno
* Distance: 13.2 km loop 
* Length: Approx. 5 hours
* Elevation: 846 meters
* Difficulty: Difficult
* Parking: Free

Tip: the Lago di Sorapis loop trail is SUPERRR popular so the earlier you trail the road the better. 

Who has been? 🤗

Italy Series | P.1 Thinking about planning an Ita Italy Series | P.1

Thinking about planning an Italian road trip this summer but you don’t know where to start? Well, you’re in luck. Over the next week, I’m going to do a re-cap on my 2019 Italian adventure.

One week, a car, a few too many cameras, lots of hikes, epic lake views, and two very snap happy gals. 👀☀️🚙🗻🏄‍♀️

📍Location 1: Lago Di Braies

A 5.45am start on a Sunday for views like these…! Was it worth it? Totally! 

Hidden in the Dolomites you’ll find this incredibly beautiful lake. It looks like something out of a dream. 🤍 Crystal clear water, mountain reflections and total silence. A breathtaking place that 100% needs to be ticked off your bucket list! 😍

We stayed in Cortina. It was a one hour from there. Tip: this is a super popular place so arrive extra early to avoid crowds! 

Thanks for the snap: @janetnewenham 🕺
