Slieve Blooms
Discover for yourself, the land of Fionn Mac
Cumhaill where thousands of years of magic
and mystery are interwoven across a land as
unspoiled as it is rich in archaeology, history,
tradition and culture. Yours to explore using
the Slieve Bloom Driving and heritage Map
(available from Tourist information Point- Kinnitty). Slieve Bloom is full
of hidden magic places for walking where the wild plants and animals of
the mountains still find a home. Enjoy a self-guided eco walk, looped
walks signposted from the villages or for the keener walker the long
distance Slieve Bloom Way. Programme of guided walks every
