  • Day 1 Arrival in Oughterard

    From your point of arrival, use the public transport information we provide to make the journey to Oughterard.

  • Day 2 Oughterard (Glann Church) - Maam Valley

    10.6 Miles / 17 Km 4-6 Hrs 120 Metres

    A long, relatively flat, walk follows quiet country roads out of Oughterard alongside the shores of Lough Corrib – an internationally renowned fishing destination. After passing the lake, you cross some scenic bogland typical of the local area before finishing your walk in the Maamturk Mountains.

  • Day 3 Maam Valley - Lough Inagh

    9.3 Miles / 15 Km 4-6 Hrs 310 Metres

    Those leg muscles will be put to the test this morning as you climb upwards to Máméan Pass (the pass of the birds). At the top of the pass, there is a wonderful surprise. (You will have to visit to find out!)

  • Day 4 Lough Inagh to Leenane

    9.3 Miles / 15 Km 4-6 Hrs 100 Metres

    A stunning walk through the epic boglands of Connemara in a valley between the Twelve Bens to your left and the Maamturks on your right. The trail finishes along a beautiful old track overlooking Ireland’s only fjord.

  • Day 5 Departure from Leenane

    There are regular bus services from Leenane. We will be happy to provide you with further details upon request.
