Crossroad in beautyful landscape at the road from Maam to Leenaun / Leenane.

Old Bridge used as a film location for the movie 'The Quiet Man' from 1952 with John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara. In Germany the movie had two titles: 'Der Sieger' (The winner) 'Die Katze mit dem roten Haar' (The cat with red hair)

Great road to cycle in awsome landscape. I was there with my Specialized touring bike in 1998 - the road has been tarred by now. There were no digital cameras invented yet at that time - these photos came out of my photo album. I made two or three photos in a row and glued them next to each other, overlapping at the corners, into the album - that is the break between them.

Breathtaking area between 'Maam Cross' and the town of 'Maum'.

The fjord has cut deep into the interior of the country.

The lake is a popular scenic location, and extensively photographed, and offers views directly into the Glencoaghan Valley of the Twelve Bens and the peaks of the Glencoaghan Horseshoe, a 16–kilometre 8–9 hour route that is considered one of Ireland's best hill-walks. https://www.guide-ireland.com/tourist-attractions/derryclare-lough/

The road traces the entirety of the north shore of Kylemore Lough. It is a stunning route to cycle. For 2km you are rewarded with the deep waters of the lake and mountain views.
