Bangor Trail

The Bangor Trail is a waymarked walking trail in Erris, North Mayo, Ireland. The trail, which is approximately 22 miles (35 km) in length,^[1][2] takes a route south from Bangor Erris through the Nephin Beg Range to Newport.^[3] Walking guides and maps of the Bangor Trail have been published by Mayo County Council.^[4]

It is a fairly tough and remote hiking trail, in an area of largely blanket bog terrain.^{[citation needed]} The Bangor Trail follows an old drover path which may date from the Iron Age. There are, along the route, evidence of previous human habitation, particularly from the mid-19th century just prior to the Irish Famine.^{[citation needed]}

The Western Way is another walking trail in the same area.
