What makes this road special

Straddling the border of County Cork and County Kerry on the remote Beara Peninsula, the Healy Pass is a driving masterpiece. It twists through the desolate Caha Mountains in a continuous, rhythmic series of perfectly formed serpentine hairpins. The remarkably smooth surface and lack of heavy tourist buses make it a true hidden gem for driving enthusiasts.
