Speaker: Mary Murphy
From the Bluestack Way - Part 4 playlist.
To those of you who are looking hungrily at the imposing mountains across the way, the good news is that there is a highly regarded waymarked walk called Sli Cholmcille that takes in the mountains to the left - Mulnanaff, Crocknapeast and Common Mountain (the horse shoe) going down to the base of Glengesh before taking on the beasts that are Crockuna, Meenacurrin and Slievetooey.
Look out for Adrian Hendroff's excellent book called 'Donegal, Sligo and Leitrim Mountain and Coastal Hillwalks - a walking guide'. These are dealt with as Walks 15 and 16, with Walk 17 being simply called 'Ireland's finest coastal walk' and no, Slieve League is Walk 18. Here's hoping we've whetted your appetite - it's the best walking book of its kind in Ireland, a case study in practical and intelligent information with some fun festooned throughout.
Going in the direction of Loughros Bay, we tell you more about Grainne and Diarmuid who are believed to have fled there in Irish mythology escaping Fionn McCumhaill.
