At the top of the mountain pass between Killaloe and Kilbane stands the Mass Rock, a quiet reminder of the past. Surrounded by green hills and heather, the mossy stone bears a simple carved cross.

The climb up is steady and tough on rough road, but the fresh air and wide valley views make it worth it.

On the way down to Kilbane, check your brakes — the narrow road has sharp bends and surprises, adding to the charm of this wild, timeless route.
