Gap of Dunloe<\/h2>\n

The Gap of Dunloe\u00a0in an absolute jewel of the Emerald Isle. \"\"<\/a>Traversing the gap via motor car is frowned upon and perhaps even prohibited from what I’ve gathered. \u00a0Prohibited, that is, unless your B&B lies on the other side of the gap in the Black Valley<\/a>. \u00a0A wee bit of a loophole we took full advantage of. \u00a0The road all the way around to the south was long, winding and just a time-intensive. \u00a0Traveling through the gap takes a bit of patience as the road is narrow and there are horses with carts running back and forth and there is typically\u00a0people hiking about as well.<\/p>\n

In total, I think we made a half-dozen trips through the gap at different times of the day.<\/p>\n

The Wishing Bridge<\/h2>\n

There are five lakes within the Gap of Dunloe. \u00a0Coosaun Lough, Black Lake, Cushnavally Lake, Auger Lake, and Black Lough; all connected by the River Loe. Between the first two lakes is an old arch bridge called the Wishing Bridge. Locals claim that wishes made while upon it are destined to come true.<\/p>\n
