The Bowers Way

The newly developed Bowers Way trail extends from Ballinrobe town to Lough Mask. The trail rambles along on the existing tree lined Bowers towpath, then continues alongside the river Robe. The recently extended walk incorporates a new woodland section at Creagh woods. A new trailhead has been established to facilitate access to the trail at Creagh woods.
