Sky Road Walk

View from the Sky Road

A visit to Clifden is not complete without a walk up the Sky Road.

One of the most scenic routes for both driving or walking, it boasts spectacular views over Clifden Bay.

On your way you will see Clifden Castle, which was built between 1812 and 1815 by John D’Arcy, the founder of Clifden.

For another spectacular view, make your way up to the D’Arcy monument.  Only a ten minute walk from the hotel, this is the best spot for postcard-perfect photos of Clifden and the surrounding area.

A complimentary walking map with more details of what you can see on the way is available at reception.
