During my trip in Ireland, I did twice ride with my bike near Dublin and the landscape was very great.
First ride
For the first ride, I didn't have a goal, just, ride in the north of Dublin and discover the landscape. During my trip, I went to Malahide and visited the Malahide Castle & Garden:
And went to the beach in the east of Malahide. You can see a picture of the beach, but, the weather wasn't good :)
At Malahide, you have this church, called Saint Sylverter's Church:
After that, I decided to go further in the north, so, I decided to visit Balbriggan. During my ride, I visited the Ardgillan Castle and the huge garden:
After that, I decided to go home. So, for my first ride in Dublin, I did 97km with 723m of elevation and I envoyed every moment :). You can find my itinary and if you want, you can download the GPX file and envoy your trip like me :)
Second ride
For the second ride, I wished to go to Hill of Tara, a wonderful archeaelogical site in the north of Dublin, but, arrived there, I couldn't visit it. So, a little disappointed, so I rode around and further.
I visited the Trim village and see the Trim Castle:
During my go back, I saw the Dangan Church, in the south of Trim village.
The second ride was longer than the first one. I rode 117km with 736m of elevation. You can find the figure below my itinary and you can download the GPX file if you want to do my itinary.
