Similarly to the other island (Ireland) Valentia Island & its neighbouring islets are scattered with ancient Cairns Dolmens, Wedge tombs, Standing Stones, Ogham Stones, promontory forts, remains of churches, etc…. but what we had that the rest didn’t, well there’s the Tetrapod Tracks and then there’s Mug Ruith.

Enjoy your Adventure!
