Kerry Walking Trail – Lomanagh Loop in Sneem

If you’re looking for a great Kerry Walk Experience, try the Lomanagh Loop in Sneem. The Lomanagh 3.5hr/10km Kerry Walk in Sneem is a scenic loop on tarred road, forest track & hillside. With one 170m high hill, it is a walk everyone can do.

Mullaghanattin Triangulation Pillar

Mullaghanattin Mountain Horseshoe Walk

The Mullaghanattin and Beann Horseshoe walk is one the most breathtaking experiences you can have in Kerry’s or indeed Ireland’s mountains. As most walkers head straight to the Macgillycuddy Reeks, Mullaghanattin visitors will likely have the mountains to themselves. The horseshoe is a pleasant test rather than an endurance one, leaving you with sufficient reserves to enjoy an evening afterwards in the village of Sneem.

Fermoyle Loop Footbridge Across the Sneem River

The Best Sneem Walks – Fermoyle Loop Trail

This way-marked trail is 14 KM and follows tarred road, farm track and open hillside. Largely due to its 14 km length, it’s graded as a moderate walk but is quite manageable for all who walk on a regular basis. It should take 4.5 hrs.
