A Camino-type attraction for the southwest is among the proposals included in a new five-year tourism plan for West Cork and Kenmare.
The plan, launched by Fáilte Ireland, aims to extend the tourism season across the region, and position it as a premier, national, and international artisan food and drink destination.
It plans to increase bednights in the region by 2% year-on-year, increase visitor numbers in the off-peak season, and increase visitor satisfaction.
It also aims to protect the natural heritage and special environmental character of the region.
The plan includes the development of an iconic start/end to the Wild Atlantic Way, and a Camino-type offering connecting the Beara Way, Kerry Way, and Sheep’s Head Way.
