The Tullaher Moor shows you a completely different side of the Irish landscape - rough, original and yet full of life. If you leave the coast behind you and head into the moor, you will be surprised by the peace and space. The white flowers of the cotton grass shine between the tufts of grass and moor waters, and every now and then you can see pieces of peat stacked up, which are traditionally cut and dried here.
Especially in spring and summer, it is worth stopping for a moment and watching the hustle and bustle of peat cutting. There are not many places where this ancient craft is still as alive as it is here. But make sure to stay on the paths, because the moor can be deceptive and the ground gives way in places.
The drive through the Tullaher Moor offers a welcome change from the coastal routes. Rich green tones and the scent of damp soil dominate here, creating a special atmosphere that makes you feel like you are really in the heart of nature.
