14 km1 hr 15 minChallengingLoop
The Errislannan Loop is a short one to the south of Clifden with the theme of water and stone, as it goes around the Errislannan Peninsula through the rocky Connemara landscape. It includes a steady uphill climb. There are fine views of Clifden Bay and it passes the Owenglen Cascade as well as the Alcock & Brown memorial which is a magnificent panoramic viewpoint. Care is required on R341 and at the junctions with it at the base of the peninsula.
