Today is the day we take the direction of Clifden the capital of Connemara and its beautiful landscapes.
We headed immediately to the Sky Road as the sky cleared off towards the ocean, While we take as fact the sun is there to meet up for viewing pleasure and Sky Road to its name .
Having tasted a Guinness, a good meal and an Irish coffee to finish, we'll take a walk in the Connemara National Park before heading towards the Abbey Kyllemore we will not visit because the prices are a bit high to our liking.
The Connemara National Park covers an area of about 2000 hectares. It is notably composed of 12 highest peaks in the region, also called Twelve Bens, culminating at 728 meters.
Kylemore Castle was built in 1868 under the command of merchant and politician Henry Mitchell, who wanted to make a wedding present for his wife Margaret. Now it is a Benedictine abbey since 1920.
Then we return to Carrao through Joyce Country, a region straddling County Galway and County Mayo. Joyce
River that flows through a valley between Leenane and Maum gives its name to this region.
