コノートのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

コネマラで最も特徴的な道路の一つ：狭いアスファルト、わずかに起伏があり、常に水と低い緑の尾根に囲まれています。Lough Feeは、広々とした風景の中に細長く横たわっています。道は岸辺に沿って走り、水、湿地、そして周囲の丘の景色をほぼ連続して見ることができます。広大な西海岸の空気と、ほとんど時代を超越した静けさがあり、人里離れた静かな雰囲気です。

アイルランドで「カリブ海」のようなひとときを。ここからは、有名な2つの白い砂浜を隔てる細い砂州を見下ろすことができます。晴れた日には、グルーティン湾の水が、真っ白な砂（実際には微細な貝殻でできています）を背景に鮮やかなターコイズブルーに染まります。背景には、トゥエルブ・ベンズの荒々しい輪郭が見えます。ビーチへの短い下り坂を下りる前に、写真を撮るために絶対に立ち寄るべき場所です。

This short section connects the outflow from Lough Fee to Lough Muck downstream, enroute to the nearby Atlantic.

Errisberg sits overlooking the North Atlantic with stunning, panoramic views out to sea of the Roundstone bog and Dog's Bay. Inland, well, on a good day, you can catch sight of the Twelve Bens. At only 300 metres high, Errisberg is not that high, but it’s big on attitude, and the views are simply awesome.

steps and slipway

The summit is relatively easy to climb, but don't be fooled into thinking you can find a way up from the valley floor. The path disappears as soon as you start the ascent. Good mobility is essential to get up there, as there are several small scree sections along the way. The descent, on the other hand, is disastrous. There's no path at all, and you have to traverse a very unpleasant, steep slope through moss and bushes. It's recommended to split the hike if you only want to reach the summit. Start from the car park at Lough Accorymore and don't attempt the circular route to the top. I really advise against doing the circular route; you won't enjoy the hike otherwise, but the view is still worth it. Just follow the route marked at the car park by the lake.

Beautiful trail run. Currently (Aug 2025) the path along the lake is not possible due to felled trees.
