These walks explore the heritage and landscape of the bogs, mountains and islands of Connemara. Hiking in this majestic mountain range with vast panorama of mountains, bog and islands overlooking hundreds of small lakes and descending along a river gorge with cascading waterfall. You will see circling ravens, red deer, and a 5,000-year old tomb. You will cross the Maum Turk Mountains and descending into Joyce Country. Moderate walking on rough trail and quite country roads.
Lovely family walk.
A magical space of low heather-covered hills, craggy cliffs and exquisite turquoise beaches and magnificent natural harbour.

Fin whales are occasionally seen offshore in the Autumn. One of the few tidal islands in Ireland named after St. Feichin.
