The roadtrip from Dublin to the West Coast of Ireland is truly breathtaking. The rolling green hills, endless castles and free roaming wildlife make you feel like you've stepped back in time. These are the stops we made along the way that we feel made the trip so special. Our trip began and ended in Dublin. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

Cathedral Church of St Canice & Round Tower

St. Canice’s Cathedral (Kilkenny Cathedral) is one of the six cathedrals in the United Dioceses of Cashel and Ossory. If you don’t know what that means, just know it’s a big deal and one of the more popular things to see in Kilkenny. Dating all of the way back to the 13th century, this cathedral is also equipped with a 100-foot 9th-century round tower next door. This “Celtic Christian” round tower is one of only three medieval round towers in Ireland that can still be climbed to the top.

Another picturesque stop on our walk through Kilkenny.
