The Pathless Land

In "The Pathless Land," Tim Hannigan embarks on an epic journey from Dingle to Burr Point to uncover Ireland’s lost footpaths, illuminating the challenges of accessing the Irish countryside, which lacks a comprehensive network of public footpaths. This evocative travelogue intertwines the exploration of Ireland's turbulent history with contemporary debates about public land access in both Ireland and Britain, while also posing vital questions about practical pathways to enhance the "right to roam" in agricultural landscapes. As Hannigan navigates this pathless terrain, he reflects on personal connections to landscape and identity, making this journey both a physical and introspective quest.
