Fall is a great time for a hiking holiday. The kids are back in school, so the trails are empty, and even the popular tourist sites are less crowded.
This trip to Ireland, included the hike called the Highlights of Kerry Way, offered by the British company Contours Walking Holidays.

The description of the walk talks about sections of "boggy trails"-- and "very boggy trails". Take this seriously! Wear good hiking boots and gators, and hopefully you won't end up with wet feet. Be sure and carry good rain gear as well-- one reason Ireland is so green is because of the rain.| Heckel and Jeckel? |
