Autumn views in Ireland are magical. Trees turn shades of gold and copper, hillsides take on deeper tones and even city streets feel different. It’s the perfect time to grab your camera and take a forest trail, a clifftop path, or a riverside stroll with a view. 🍂📸

The final episode of #TheHillsAreAlive (@RTEOne 6.30pm) charts the change of seasons from Christmas to Easter at @kylemore, where the sisters mourn the passing of their former Abbess while welcoming new life to the estate in springtime. Thanks to them for sharing their lives.
