Glanbannoo Walk

January 6, 2014 by Dunmanus

The Glanbannoo Walk is an invigorating one and three quarter hour loop walk which leads you through bog road, valley and ridge in beautiful West Cork.

Starting at Coomanore Lake, this walk takes you westward to Lough Bofinne. It has quite spectacular views along the ridge, deep mossy woodlands, and yet at no point is it too rugged and steep to be described as more than “moderate” in difficulty.

You can purchase the Drimoleague Heritage Walkways book at Centra, Drimoleague for more details of this walk. The guide introduces you to the trails on the eastern side of the famous Sheep’s Head Way walking route.
