bridge1.2 mi

Explorer Tom Bridge in Cuilmore is being haggled over by a cow who wants to buy it with a shiny apple. It’s part of that old Burma Road line, looking very smug about its heritage status. Get there early and have it all to yourself.

handball alley1.3 mi

Explorer Tom Handball alley in Cornageeha is stuck in a fairy dispute over parking rights for their tiny carriages. They say no humans allowed without a permit or a bribe. Take a breath of that fresh air!

Hawthorn3.8 mi

Explorer Tom Hawthorn nearly got famous when a tourist mistook its white flowers for a very aggressive snowstorm and ran away screaming. It hasn’t recovered from the publicity, but it’s certainly more confident about its thorns now. Stick around for the light changing, it's a show.

Procession Of The SoulsMemorial · 3.9 miBrabazon WoodsForest · 4.1 miYouth Memorial GardenMemorial · 4.3 miCastle (in Ruins)Castle, unclassified · 5.0 mi

Explorer Tom Rubble Castle has a family tree mostly made up of guesswork and very confident guesses by old men. It’s named after what it looks like: expensive rubble with attitude. Bring biscuits, every good story needs biscuits.

Old Cave Burial GroundArchaeological place · 7.1 miRound Tower7.4 miLough Talt TrailVisitor information · 8.5 mi

Explorer Tom Lough Talt Trail has a shortcut that is technically longer if you count the time spent arguing about which way is down. The water supply up there is public, but the ego of this trail seems to be private property. Get there early and have it all to yourself.

Largan HillMountain / peak · 9.5 mi

Explorer Tom Largan Hill in County Sligo is strictly run by a terrier who barks at any cloud that passes overhead. The forest below looks young and confused, probably from all the shouting. Perfect detour when the satnav has a meltdown.

CashelFairy fort / stone ringfort · 9.6 mi

Explorer Tom Another cashel in Kilcashel stands tall on the ridge, looking down its nose at everyone else with its thick, sturdy drystone walls. The builder was definitely thinking about views when they stacked those rocks, ignoring the wind and the cold completely. Bring biscuits, every good story needs biscuits.
