the leitrim way

A walk through a variety of landscape forms common to this beautiful but little known part of Ireland. Starting by following the east shore of Lough Allen, the walker travels through increasingly beautiful scenery until reaching the upland wilderness of Barlear. The route is made up of tracks old and new in its entirety, resulting in a fast pace. It is generally more attractive to walk from Drumshambo to Manorhamilton.
