コリブ湖のおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

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

The path to the waterfall from the sign has been blocked. Too bad.

This part of the Western Way passes between the outlying peak of Lackavrea and Corcogemore, on the eastern end of the rugged Maumturks range. Here, nestles the little Maunwee Lough, a lovely spot. The end of the first stage, at Maum, is just a short hop from here.

NB: At the time of writing (July 2025), this section of the Western Way was impassable and closed until further notice. See: thewesternway.ie for trail updates. This is a beautiful section of the Western Way long-distance trail. Boardwalks take you along the bog beneath the Maumturks outlier of Lackavrea, an impressive, standalone peak. Expect pretty little waterfalls, grand views into the heart of Connemara and rich wildlife.

Great forest path, with many fallen trees, karst holes, karst streams that appear short and then flow underground.

Cam you hear the sound of the waterfall ? If so ignore the official trail for a moment. There's a small trail on the right hand side of the sign. A really short walk will take you to this small waterfall. Well worth a visit.

The only way to get a bike here is to carry it 😉

Ashford Castle, a stunning medieval castle on the shores of Lough Corrib near the town of Cong in County Mayo, is one of Ireland's most magnificent and historic buildings. Originally built in the 13th century by a noble Anglo-Norman family, the castle has a long and fascinating history spanning several centuries. In the 19th century, Ashford Castle was purchased and both restored and expanded by Benjamin Guinness, a member of the famous brewing family. His son, Arthur Guinness, 1st Baron Ardilaun, was responsible for creating the extensive gardens and forests, which are now decorated with exotic plants from all over the world. Since 1939, the castle has served as one of Ireland's most exclusive 5-star hotels, attracting guests from all over the world, including numerous celebrities and royalty. Visiting Ashford Castle is not only a trip back in time, but also an opportunity to experience the luxurious amenities and exceptional service of one of the world's leading hotels. The magnificent gardens and picturesque lake provide ample opportunities for walking and exploring in some of Ireland's most beautiful scenery. Access to the grounds of Ashford Castle is normally reserved for hotel guests, but there are routes to allow viewing, such as the footbridge at Monk's Fishing House behind the abbey, which offers free entry. However, visitors should inform themselves in advance about the current access conditions and possible restrictions.
