This secluded, very appealing walk follows coastal paths and small quiet winding country roads on Gorumna Island in the Conamara Gaeltacht with stunning views of the Maamturk and 12 Bens Mountains, Aran Islands, varying seascapes and the unique surrounding countryside, such as coral beaches and rocky fields.

Angelica from Galway

Nice easy walk, mostly on little rural roads (most like long driveways.) and then down by the coast. The signs are not yelllow on black, however. They are blue on white, and if you go in a 'clockwise' direction, you have to keep an eye out for them as they are oriented to be seen while walking the 'anticlockwise' direction.

Nice loop with a beautiful view on the Aran Islands and on the Connemara hills in the background. Need to do it clockwise else you may miss the signs, this is what we did, so took us longer.
