Stage 7 of the Dingle Way covers 26.8 km from Cloghane to Castlegregory, with 64 m of ascent and 66 m of descent. The highest point is 42 m. Allow about 7 hours of walking, plus breaks.
Distance, climb and elevation come from the Outest route data. Difficulty and time are estimates from distance and climb; your pace will vary with heat, pack weight and photo stops.
Guest house on a farm on the Maharees Road at the edge of Castlegregory; the Way passes the garden. Open April to September; the dingleway.com listing says breakfast is not served, so ask.
Pub and restaurant at Fahamore on the Maharees, on the Way, known for seafood and steaks.
B&B at Scraggane Pier on the Maharees, about 0.5 km off the Way and some 10 km before Castlegregory; it has a pool and runs a diving centre.
Checked online in October 2026. Places marked "listed by a tourism directory" are on the official trail site, a Dingle Way or local community listing but could not be confirmed on their own website. Many B&Bs and hostels in the small villages open only from about March or April to September or October and have few rooms. Book ahead, especially for Camp, Dunquin and Feohanagh.
