West of Galway the land turns to quartzite peaks, blanket bog and a coastline of white-sand coves. You can walk the Twelve Bens and Diamond Hill in Connemara National Park, cross to Inishbofin by ferry, or drive the Sky Road above Clifden. Kylemore Abbey sits under wooded slopes; oysters, mussels and Connemara lamb fill the menus. Spring and early autumn give the clearest light, and Irish is still the everyday language in Carna and Rossaveal.
