MOLLS GAP
Famous for a few different reasons but this world famous stretch of road is one of the best stages of the Rally of the Lakes and the old circuit of Ireland Rally. Moll’s gap is so well known it is even going digital in a new rally simulator game that will be available to to gaming and rally fans all over the world soon.
Moll’s gap is named after Moll Kissane who ran a Shebeen ( unlicensed pub) in the 1820’s while the road was under construction. Old Sandstone rocks at Moll’s Gap were laid over 350 million years ago.
Like the nearby Gap of Dunloe, Moll’s Gap is an example of a “glacial breach”, where a 500 metre deep glacier in the Black Valley broke through Moll’s Gap 25,000 years ago during Ireland’s last ice age.
The scenery at one of Irelands top tourist attractions is breathtaking and on a fine clear day you will see incredible views of the Macgillicuddy Reeks mountain range.
