It is the summer of walks, picnics and staycations around Ireland. Whether the sun is splitting the stones or the drizzle is coming down there are great options for getting out and about.

Here are some of my favourite long walks to enjoy plus some of my favourite places to refuel along the way.  I think a lot of us tend to underestimate how beautiful Ireland is, especially when the sun is shining so why not use this weekend as a chance to revisit an old favourite or explore somewhere new. Get your walking shoes on, you won’t regret it.
