Day 1: Cliffs of Moher Day tour to Galway

You will be picked up in Dublin and start your incredible journey to the City of Galway where you will spend your first night. Galway is a magical place with street performers and buskers coming from all over the world. The next morning your bike will be delivered to you accommodation and you will start your cycle adventure to the magical Connemara region.

Day 2: Oranmore to Oughterard

Once you leave Oranmore, you are not far from Galway city, where you can stop to experience the energy of this young bohemian city. From there you will cycle through many little villages until you reach the gateway to Connemara - Oughterard. This small traditional village in the West of Ireland offers stunning scenery of the Connemara mountain range and a 16th century Irish Tower House (Aughnanure Castle).

Day 3 : Oughterard To Leenaun

From Oughterard you are set for an approximately 30 km exquisite ride through the gorgeous Inagh Valley. You can also cycle to the amazing Kylemore Lake which leads you to one of the most romantic places in Ireland; the Kylemore Abbey which looks more of a castle than an abbey. After viewing these magical sights, you can have a rest next door at Mitchell’s Café.

Day 4 Leenaun to Westport

From the wonderful village of Leenane which sits on the Galway/Mayo border, you will travel to the popular town of Westport. Before you get there, you will be treated to an amazing ride through Lough Dooagh and up to the little hamlet of Louisburg where you can take a ferry to Clare Island for a few hours if it takes your fancy. You will also pass Ireland’s holy mountain of Croagh Patrick before reaching Westport.

Day 5: Westport to Maam Cross

After a wonderful nights entertainment of traditional live music in the many pubs of Westport, it's time to get on your bike again. Today you travel on a beautiful road from Westport to Leenaun with Croagh Patrick in the foreground. There are fantastic views along this road with lush green fields and crystal streams at every corner. You will pass through Leenaun and on through a mountain pass toward the cross roads at Maam Cross. The cycle will take about 3 hours and you can stop at Leenaun along the way.

Day 6: Maam Cross to Oranmore

Today is the last day of the cycling tour; as disappointing as it is, don't forget to enjoy your final day! You will make your way back from Maam Cross to Oranmore and be collected by our coach heading for Dublin. You will pass through Galway city on the way. The time until our coach collects you is yours to choose how to spend the time. Once you arrive back in Dublin you will be dropped at the centre of the city at College Green. We hope that this cycle tour in the west of Ireland will have you coming back for more!
