Sligo Way
The Sligo Way is a long-distance trail in County Sligo, Ireland. It is long and begins in Larrigan, near Lough Talt and ends in Dromahair. It is typically completed in three days. It is designated as a National Waymarked Trail by the National Trails Office of the Irish Sports Council and is managed by Sligo County Council, Sligo Integrated Development Company and the Sligo Walks Partnership.
Starting at the shores of Lough Talt, the trail crosses the Ox Mountains, via Lough Easkey, to reach Coolaney and then follows roads to Collooney. From Collooney, it crosses Union Wood, past Ballygawley Lough, and, entering Slish Woods, follows the shore of Lough Gill to reach the end at Dromahair. The terrain consists of forest tracks, roads and moorland paths.
A review of the National Waymarked Trails in 2010 found low multiday usage and medium to high day usage of sections of the Sligo Way and recommended the proportion of walking on tarred roads be reduced and consideration given to developing the trail as a dual walking and cycling route.
