a very challenging hike , would advise going when weather is good as it is very boggy
Maumonght and An Chailleach Loop

The route starts in a field behind a house - probably a good idea not to park in front of the house but down the road a short distance where there is a bridge crossing the river and there is a large gravel area which I think is the entrance to a quarry surrounded by a forested area. Keep an eye on the app as you approach the first summit as I ended up ascending a tricky shale patch and if I’d gone further to the left the ascent would have been a lot more straight forward. Stunning views as always in Connemara. A few boggy bits and no real path to follow at any point so definitely a hikers route rather than a day trippers route.
