Failte Ireland have launched a new smartphone app for the Wild Atlantic Way.
The app claims to be the definitive guide to the world’s longest defined coastal touring route.
The Wild Atlantic Way stretches 2,500km from Inishowen to Kinsale.

Key features of the app include: Exclusive information on 15 Signature Discovery Points, Additional information on 160 Discovery Points, A list of Hidden Gems, shared by locals, Constantly updated information and information on local events and great places to eat.
