Sligo
Way
. |
| From
Lough Talt, at the end of the Western Way, the
route follows the northern foothills of the Ox
Mountains, passing Lough Easky by forest tracks,
moorland and quiet country roads. It climbs gently
to cross the Ox Mountains to reveal a panorama
of one of the most beautiful counties of Ireland.
|
|
 |
It
continues through the villages of Coolaney and
Collooney and by forest and mountain tracks reaches
the shores of Lough Gill, so justly praised by
the poet W.B. Yeats. Finally, it passes the ruined
Creevelea Abbey and crosses the river Bonet to
Dromahair, close to the Leitrim Way.

The
Curlew Walkers Group
. |
The
Curlew Walkers group conducts weekly walks through
the region from their base in Boyle. For those
who may find the Miners Way, the Suck way and
the Sligo way too extreme and wish for something
a little less energetic, then the Lough Key Forest
Park is ideal. It provides abundant long and short
nature trails that display all the fascinating
aspects of the Park. Guides to lead walks over
more demanding terrain can be arranged for groups.
Specialist companies offering walking holidays
are starting to appear along the border counties
and they will arrange everything for both individuals
and groups. Detailed Maps available in Una Bhan
Craft Shop, Boyle
