Achill

Jim Sherwin travels from Mulranny to Achill Island in Co Mayo, beginning on the Burrishoole loop walk along the Mulranny coast, accompanied by local resident Mary Callahan. He then meets his grandsons Alex and Matthew to cycle along the Greenway, a new path from Westport to Achill, and along the way they meet local artist Seosamh O'Dalaigh to discuss how the landscape of the Cleggan Hills has inspired generations of painters. The final leg of the journey sees him walk Achill's Atlantic Drive in the company of guide Tomas MacLochlainn, and the pair visit the ancient church at Kildownet.
