Travel Information
Valentia Island is accessible via a car ferry (Rennard to Knight's town) or a road bridge at Port Magee. The mountain itself is private land, but is accessible for a very modest fee (I think about €4) which is used to maintain roads, car parks and trails. You can drive right to the top!!
