The O'Sullivan Beara Way,  Ireland's longest walking trail, which links counties Cork, Kerry, Limerick, Tipperary, Offaly, Galway, Roscommon, Sligo, Leitrim and Cavan, winds it's way from Ballingarry, through our little village of Aglish onto Lorrha and then Portumna in County Galway, where it connects with the Hymany Way. 

It retraces the steps of O'Sullivan Beare in 1603 from Beara in County Cork to Leitrim.



This is an area still relatively undiscovered by mass tourism and so it retains the true charms of the "Real Ireland" which many visitors choose to capture in painting and photography, be it, it's historic castles and heritage buildings and sites, it's beautiful landscape, rivers, lakes and bogs, or just it's typical local Irish residents, they all seem to capture the hearts of visitors.
