Graves of the Leinster Men Looped Walk

Ballina

Overview

2h
According to tradition, the Graves of the Leinstermen is where the men of Leinster and their King met their deaths at the hands of High King Brian Boru’s soldiers. This looped walk follows minor roads and laneways to ascend Tountinna where breathtaking views of Lough Derg await. Starting at the Graves of Leinstermen and moving on minor roads through pleasant countryside, it then leaves the road before turning into the Arra Mountains. Then the loop descends steeply back to the trailhead. The long distance linear walk known as the Lough Derg Way takes in part of this loop.
