Immensely popular, this moderate walk follows the original road to Kenmare. Most locals opt for a short version, stopping at the river and returning by the same path. The total length of the old road is ten miles (16 kilometres), while the shorter route is eight miles (13 kilometres). The one-way walk to Kenmare will take about five hours, while the shorter option will take four hours or less. This delightful walk takes you along mountain meadows where herds of Red Deer frequently graze. In Esknamuky Glen, the furrows and stone walls of a pre-Famine village are still visible, providing a stark reminder of harsher times. There are spectacular views of the surrounding mountains throughout with plenty of pleasant spots to picnic.
