This 2-kilometre coastal trail brings walkers down to the shores of the Killary Fjord to take in some of the most dramatic scenery in Ireland, with Mweelrea the highest mountain in Connacht rising from the north, and the imposing panorama of the Maumturk Mountains and Twelve Bens in the south.

Perfect for wildlife spotting - heron, barnacle goose, mallard duck, mute swan, seals, otters, and dolphins are all found here. Information boards on local flora and fauna, geology and history of the fjord, painted by artist Rachel Craig, are dotted along the route.

There are art installations and look out points - a chainsaw carving of the prow of a Viking longship by Limerick artist Will Fogarty and a huge oak picture frame to highlight the stunning views - as the weather changes so does the picture! After your walk, stop by the Misunderstood Heron, recently voted one of the top 10 coolest food trucks in the world by Lonely Planet, and based on-site from March to October. 

The trail is open to the public, with car parking available. Dogs are welcome but must be kept on a leash. The ground is uneven in places, so this walk is not suitable for buggies and prams or those with limited mobility.
