Facts and practical information

Ireland's Ancient East is a destination marketing brand representing the east coast, and parts of the midlands and south coasts, of Ireland. Unlike the Wild Atlantic Way, the region's tourism trail doesn't have a set driving route, and instead seeks to connect various sights throughout seventeen counties in two provinces. The concept is built around four "pillars": Ancient Ireland, Early Christian Ireland, Medieval Ireland and Anglo Ireland. ()
