Clifden – The Gateway to Connemara National Park
Clifden is a picturesque small town in County Galway on Ireland's west coast, often referred to as the "unofficial capital" of Connemara. The town is situated at the mouth of the Owenglin River into Clifden Bay, offering stunning views of the surrounding mountains and sea. Known for its Victorian architecture and lively atmosphere, Clifden serves as an ideal base for excursions into the nearby Connemara National Park.
