    Tips

    June 2, 2026

    The Colmcille Trail (An Cosán Cholmcille in Irish) is a pleasant 7-kilometre (4-mi) loop from Milford. It's named for a 6th-century saint who would visit Lough Colmcille as a youngster to reflect and pray. There are many features of historic interest to keep and eye out for, including a crannog (artificial island) and a 17th-century graveyard and church.
