Ring of Kerry
The Ring of Kerry, a 179-kilometer circular route in County Kerry, Ireland, offers travelers a journey through rugged coastal cliffs, remote villages, and winding mountain roads. Starting from Killarney, the route moves clockwise through towns like Kenmare, Waterville, Cahersiveen, and Glenbeigh, each offering its own slice of Irish life. Though often explored by car or tour bus, cycling the route is growing in popularity, especially during spring and early autumn when traffic is lighter.
Dorrigo National Park
Dorrigo National Park lies on the escarpment of northern New South Wales, about an hour from Coffs Harbour, where subtropical rainforest covers steep valleys and high country. The park forms part of the Gondwana Rainforests of Australia World Heritage Area, protecting plant communities that preserve links to ancient forests. Its elevated position creates broad views toward the Bellinger Valley and the coast, while dense forest keeps many walking tracks cool and shaded.
