Reviews of Connemara National Park Visitor Centre
"Entrance to Connemara famous park, very nice personnel that will give you all the necessary info. During the hike, remember to pack some anti-insect spray ! The mosquitos are tiny but fierce. You have three hikes : a very short one, a medium one and a more difficult one that goes to the top of Diamonds Hill, only choose the last one if you are a confirmed walker are the step are steep !"
"I loved the exhibition inside the visitor centre, the painting of the animals that live in the national park was stunning and the information about the blanket bog was very clear and made it easier to understand quite a complex habitat."
"Amazing place,well done & kept in immaculate condition. I done the Diamond hill hike,was a tough climb near the top(& midges going mad biting didn't help,but it is a bog after all) the views on way up & at the top was breathtaking.I was lucky with the weather which helped with climb & views.A credit to all involved making the path up & down Diamond hill."
"Green trail is closed for maintenance. Yellow, blue and red trails are open for hike. Well marked pathways with sign posts along the way. Must go if the weather is good"
"One of my favourite places to visit. Another breathtakingly beautiful park great for all ages. The staff of the coffee shop were great and food delicious and reasonably priced. If you get a chance go to the graveyard near the Ellis trail, it's in memory of the many young boys who died in the letterfrack industrial school many years ago. It's an emotional visit be prepared"
