The Mullaghareirk Mountain range is situated in West Limerick with the pretty villages of Broadford and Ashford nestling at the foot of the mountains. This majestic landscape of rolling hills and open farmland is ideal walking terrain. There are eight loop walks in all. Each route has been carefully selected to include at least one of the mountain peaks, with the best scenery and interesting pathways. The walks will introduce the visitor to the many natural springs, bird life, wildlife, bogs and historical sites to be enjoyed. The length of the walks range from 5 km to 24 km and cover a variety of terrain from open farmland and forest paths to quiet country roads. All of the routes are signposted with route maps available for each of the walks providing full directions and information on points of interest. All of the walks either start or finish in the lovely villages of Broadford and Ashford where the visitor is assured of a warm welcome from the local people.
