  • Itinerary 3: Day Trip to Connemara Connemara Is Located in the Farthest Westerly Reaches of County Galway
    Itinerary 3: Day Trip to Connemara Connemara is located in the farthest westerly reaches of County Galway. In this ‘Wild West of Ireland’ the roads undulate between a coastline filled with inlets and boggy lowlands and the towering Twelve Bens (or Twelve Pins) Mountains where famed Connemara Marble is mined. This trip will take a full day so plan to head out early to take advantage of everything Connemara has to offer! Estimated drives time to key locations: Doolin to Galway: 1 hour 45 minutes Galway to Clifden: 1 hour 30 minutes Clifden to Kylemore Abbey: 30 minutes Once you are through Galway city the scenery begins to change. Gone are the fields of limestone, replaced with rivers, lakes, and bog lands. Must See Sights in Connemara You have truly entered Connemara when you see the statue of the Connemara Giant. Legend says that if you touch the hand of Conn, Son of the Sea, you will be blessed with the knowledge of his ancient tribe. It’s your choice to decide which hand is the hand of knowledge! Irish tales are often told through song. Such is the story of Dan O’Hara who was evicted from his Connemara cottage in the 1840s and forced to emigrate to New York. The Connemara History and Heritage Centre is based around this cottage. The guided tour takes you on a ride through the hill farm and to the cottage where you may get to cut turf and try poitín, a (once illegal) homemade whiskey. The charming town of Clifden is the perfect spot to stop and grab a light picnic or just a sweet treat and a cuppa tea at Walsh’s Bakery.
