Where am I? A dislocated soundwalk

Where are we when we walk? Are we here, in this place that our feet move through, or are we there, lost in thoughts and memories of other times and places?

Don Gill – Walking

The blog at dongillwalking.blogspot.com documents a range of walking routes primarily in Ireland, featuring detailed accounts of hikes, countryside walks, and coastal paths. The content is organized around individual walks, often with maps, photographs, and descriptions of the terrain, landmarks, and natural features encountered. Emphasis is placed on the geographical and cultural context of each route, including historical and environmental notes that enrich the understanding of the landscape. The blog also explores lesser-known trails and rural areas, providing insights into Ireland’s diverse topography, from mountainous regions to coastal shorelines. Through its detailed commentary and visual documentation, the blog serves as a resource that captures both the physical experience of walking these paths and the broader cultural geography of the areas covered. The writing reflects an engaged, informed perspective on Ireland’s walking opportunities without commercial intent.
