Wild Atlantic Way Maps
This page is something of a holding place for any maps I have been working on that relate to the Wild Atlantic Way. Some of these may appear in the next edition of Exploring Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way – the original and best guidebook for the Wild Atlantic Way!
Most of these take a fairly abstract schematic approach rather than a very literal one.
The map below echo the style of the London Underground maps. Treating the Wild Atlantic Way as a linear route that runs in a straight line with various side branches and loops leaving and rejoining it.
The version on the left is dimension by drive time, while the one on right, more conventionally, is scaled to distance.
The embedded Google Map below the coordinates of every attraction, beach, carpark, trailhead etc. mentioned in Exploring Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way. While the files and map may be of some use to people who don’t own the book (yet!) it is primarily intended to be used alongside the book.
The information is also available to download onto your phone and GPS.
