Connemara Sky Road Galway

The Connemara Sky Road is a renowned, picturesque 16 km (10 mile) loop driving route that starts and ends in the town of Clifden, County Galway, in the west of Ireland. It is famous for its breathtaking, panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean, rugged Connemara coastline, and offshore islands.  The route is located on the Kingston Peninsula, just west of Clifden, often referred to as the "capital of Connemara". The loop splits into two sections: the Lower Sky Road, which runs closer to the shoreline, and the Upper Sky Road, which is highly recommended for its dramatic, elevated views from over 400 feet (120 meters) above sea level.
