Further afield but no less interesting are the Aran Islands, famous for knitted jumpers and an abundance of wildlife, and boats can be chartered to tour around these lovely isles and glimpse a view of traditional Irish life. Connemara National Park, and Connemara Loop are always worth a visit and offer some super walking opportunities, and the abundance of lakes in the area will delight keen anglers.

The only drawback was that the winter season had just begun and the local pub/restaurants were closed during the week. We had a wonderful time in spite of that.
