Hiking
Aasleagh Falls is a pretty waterfall not far from Leenaun. It's set in a typically beautiful and mountainous Connemara landscape, where the Erriff River empties into the Killary Fjord. The intriguingly named Devilsmother rises to the east, while Ben Gorm rises to the west.
This part of the Western Way can be prone to flooding. If the trail is impassable, the N59 can be used instead.

Mountain biking
These waterfalls sit in the heart of Connemara towards the Delphi Pass. Its a fantastically beautiful and wild place with plenty of benches to stop and take a break.
Access to the falls from the road is on a footpath, so jump off the bikes before making your way over there to take a closer look.
