Republic of Ireland

Cycling is a popular and growing activity in Ireland and a great way to experience the countryside up close.

There are two EuroVelo routes in Ireland: EuroVelo 1 – Atlantic Coast Route and EuroVelo 2 – Capitals Route.

Detailed local information on EuroVelo 1 in Ireland can be found here on the EuroVelo 1 Ireland website.

EuroVelo 2 is partly complete with over 110km of the route fully open and traffic free. There are temporary on road route option available for incomplete sections.

There are a number of significant ‘greenways’ in Ireland including the following: Waterford Greenway, Midleton – Youghal Greenway, Limerick Greenway, Great Western Greenway, Royal Canal Greenway and the Old Rail Trail Greenway.

Each of these provide a standalone traffic free cycling experience ranging from 20km to 130km. Each of them is also part of either EuroVelo 1 or EuroVelo 2.

Other new greenways are under construction or being planned. Some of these also align with one of the EuroVelo routes and will be incorporated when completed.

There are local sign-posted cycle routes on quiet rural roads throughout the country as well as a number of mountain bike centres with plenty of trails. Details can be found here.

Finally, Ireland has a huge network of local roads with very low traffic volumes that are perfect for exploring by bike. All roads are shown on the Ordnance Survey Discovery Series Maps available here. Why not buy a map and go exploring?

All details about travelling to Ireland and around the country with a bicycle can be found on the EuroVelo Ireland website.

Wild Atlantic Way

The Wild Atlantic Way (WAW) is a signposted tourism route on the west coast of Ireland It showcases the coast and includes attractive location along the way know as ‘Discovery Points’. While some cyclists follow the route unlike EuroVelo 1 – Atlantic Coast Route the WAW was not specifically designed or intended for use by cycle tourists. Both routes visit many of the same locations but not always using the same route. While the WAW often follows a route most suitable for driving between two locations, the EuroVelo route may follow a different route on very small roads with little or no motor traffic. In this context EuroVelo 1 could be considered as the cycling alternative to the WAW route. The link to the WAW website is provided here to allow EuroVelo 1 users to see the WAW route and to determine if they would like to deviate from the route and follow the WAW to locations that are not visited by EuroVelo 1.

@Írország

Ireland's west coast is rich in awe-inspiring landscapes, fascinating characters and foot-tapping music. Cycling it will leave you with rich memories and a thirst for more! The Wild Atlantic Way is best explored from the saddle: The grandeur of the Cork and Kerry mountains. The warmth of a night in a Galway pub. The Burren's lunar-like landscape. The mountainous Connemara National Park. Giant Sea Loughs of the Inishowen Peninsula. With a spectacular finish on the rocky promontory of Malin Head.…
