Glocca Morra B&B
to Tuamgraney and Killaloe
Loop Cycleway

Bike Ride Description:

Starting at Glocca Morra B&B in County Clare, turn left out of the drive towards Scarriff. Two km on the right hand side you will come to
the first of several lookout points. Here you can see Holy Island in the distance and also the shorelines of Scarriff and Mountshannon.
Continue on this road to the town of Tuamgraney where the East Clare Heritage Centre is located in what is probably the oldest church
in Ireland still in use. At the junction ahead, turn right onto the R352 around the grotto and turn right again on the R463 to retrace your
way to Killaloe. There's a fork in the road after 2km. Turn right onto this fork to follow the road behind Caher Mountain and to avoid the
traffic of the main Killaloe Road. Follow this road back to the R463. Turn right in the direction of Killaloe and continue on to Two Mile
Gate where you can relax at the picturesque shoreline of Lough Derg with the Swans and Ducks. Continue on to Killaloe and on the
left hand side you will see a sign for Brian Boru's ring fort. This is a lovely serene ring fort that has been dated to the time of King Brian
Boru’s reign. Continue on to Killaloe where you may want to explore the twin towns of Killaloe/Ballina and walk along the canal built as
a passage for boats around the 13 arch bridge before the hydroelectric scheme flooded the area in 1929. Be sure to check out the
Brian Boru Heritage Centre to learn about the history of Killaloe and Ireland's greatest High King, Brian Boru. Head back on the R463
in the direction of Scarriff and stay on the main road through the village of Ogonnelloe and you will see
Glocca Morra B&B on your left hand side.
Distance: 30.4km
