Thanks for making this video! Lots of useful details! I plan on visiting Loughcrew soon, and this is very helpful.

Great approach to providing one with detailed perception of planning the days journey! Thank you

Thank you so much for this video! I visited in May 2022 and definitely did not allow enough time. Visiting Ireland again next month, Nov 2023, and planning to spend more time at Loughcrew Cairns. Hopefully it won't be raining, haha!

Thank you, David! Just subscribed, 1st time to Ireland from Canada arriving 15Nov24! This kind of advance info is so helpful, & in your soothing voice! Heading to Donegal & Kerry also….so much to take in! Assuming ancestry research can be done at local churches & county offices as well?! Many thanks, Faye

Hello HarryCat33, many thanks, apologies only getting to respond now. Donegal is Beautiful, you will enjoy it. Be good. More video coming, stay safe

You have a very straightforward style in your approach to the physical and metaphysical. Go raibh maith agat.

Excellent David. Certainly not too long. Approach road from and to Trim, or Tara might be handy. Dates the centre is open. Nearest toilet and place to get coffee or a lunch?

[@irelandvirtualtours]

Very good Bart. Yes will do an edit soon and add these and also drop them in a comment. Thanks for that

Love the video. Brilliant. I live in Crosskeys. The grey fort is on our land. Could you tell me any history around it. Have been to lough crew many times... Special place. Thanks. Tom. 😊

[@irelandvirtualtours]

Good man Tom, I will have to look up that fort. It must be great knowing that history is at your doorstep. Be good, David. Thanks for the comment and be safe

Is it true that Cairn L on Carnbane West also is aligned to the sunrise on Samhain and Imbolc? Is that one accessible to see? Thank you!

[@irelandvirtualtours]

It is aligned to the equinoxes but is sited on private land. If you are visiting the area, it may be worthwhile contacting the land owner and maybe get permission to visit the site. I do not have any contact information.

Why does nobody speak about the fact that they were white quartz pyramids the same as Giza but outdating Egyptian culture? Why does nobody mention that the Hags cairn & surrounding cairns are laid out in the geometric shape of Pleiades, and have carvings of it inside. I know the reason but I'm hoping to peak some curiosity

[@irelandvirtualtours]

It's all about the curiosity and of course the history

[@Dankness-e6i]

@@irelandvirtualtours but there's a very real reason that's not mentioned and they don't restore them. Same way with the Triskele/Triskelion being the north star. The North Star is a part of Pleiades. The 7 Sisters. 🌀 The Star the sky rotates around. The Centre star. The Star of David. & The Swastika. That's why.
