About

Geokaun Mountain & Cliffs stands as the highest peak on Valentia Island, County Kerry, offering visitors a breathtaking 266‑metre summit that provides panoramic 360‑degree views of the Dingle Peninsula, the Skellig Islands and the surrounding Kerry Mountains. The iconic 600‑ft Fogher Cliffs present a dramatic cliffside backdrop, while the summit observation deck is home to four thoughtfully curated viewing areas equipped with 36 informational plaques detailing the island’s natural history, birdlife and the story behind the first trans‑Atlantic telegraph cable. Open 24/7, the site welcomes walkers, cyclists, motorists, mini‑bus and campervan visitors – each with a ticket sold at a self‑service machine often listed at €8 for cars or motorbikes, €4 for walkers or cyclists, €15 for mini‑buses, €10 for campervans, and children accompanying a paying adult enter free of charge.
