Cloghane (An Clochán)

Ireland / Kerry / Dingle /

Cloghane is a picturesque Irish village in the heart of the Kerry "Gaeltacht" (Irish speaking region). It lies at the foot of Mt Brandon, one of the finest Irish mountains, offering a ridge walk of sufficient quality to rival that of the Aonach eaganch in Glencoe.

The area boasts a range of accommodation including two local hotels, a range of B and Bs and a hostel in the heart of Cloghans Village. Four miles further along from Cloghane lies the fishing village of Brandon, well worth a visit for anyone who fancies a drink on the pier at lunch time.

Cloghane is twinned width the town of Plozevet (Brittany) since 1999
