Killary Sheep Farm

Killary Sheep Farm sits at Leenaun in County Galway, on the hill ground above the harbour in the heart of Connemara. It is a working farm that opens its gates to visitors interested in how sheep are managed on rough upland pasture.

Typical visits take in the animals, the working dogs and the practicalities of hill farming, along with traditional skills connected to wool. The setting, with the fjord and the surrounding mountains close by, makes it a straightforward and rewarding stop for families and anyone curious about rural life in the west of Ireland.
