Emerald Isles & Highland Skies GA Adventure

Begin your journey at Dublin, heading southwest toward County Kerry. This leg offers spectacular coastline views, lush green landscapes, and a relaxed GA-friendly arrival at Kerry Airport.

Fly north along the Wild Atlantic Way toward Shannon. Expect rugged cliffs, white surf, and some of Ireland's best VFR sightseeing.

Hop east into the heart of Ireland, landing at the classic grass-strip airfield of Abbeyshrule. A perfect low-and-slow countryside leg.

Return to Dublin for a quick reposition flight. Great leg for circuits, navigation practice, and mixing rural with major-terminal airspace.

Cross the invisible border into Northern Ireland and land at Newtownards, a welcoming GA field just east of Belfast Lough.

Short hop to Belfast International. Though a major airport, GA operations are smooth and scenic, especially during the Lough crossing.

Fly east across the North Channel to the Isle of Man. Gorgeous coastal cliffs and rolling terrain make this a fan-favorite GA leg.

Depart the island and head into England’s Lake District. Expect mountain ridges, lakes, and dramatic terrain—perfect GA country.

Head north into Scotland, flying over the southern highlands and arriving at Edinburgh, one of the UK’s most scenic major airports.

Finish strong: a long scenic run up the eastern Scottish coast to the Shetland Islands. Remote, rugged, atmospheric—a true GA adventure finale.
