Hello and welcome to the RTA forums !

Firstly, the things you should not miss out on are those that interest you, and you haven't told us anything about what that might be. You also don't mention how long you have for the trip or whether it's a one way trip or return. You can find lot's of info throughout the RTA site, including the Map centre where I have created a map and some of the attractions within 50 miles of the direct route.

You can use the tools to zoom in and select flagged locations.



Of course there are always options when it comes to routing and they can be built around your time and interests so I would recommend doing a little research and sharing more info so that someone who knows the area better than I do will be able to give you meaningful advice.

Enjoy the planning !
