Itinerary description
From the city of Clifden follow the main road up (north) for about 2.5 km until find on the left a tinny road called "sky road".
Here begins the way called Sky Road.
First on the inside (north) bordering the lake. Then turn left towards the ocean. There are two options: lower sky road or "higher" sky road. Here I choose "higher" to have higher views. The low is more at sea level.
And back to Clifden.
You can follow the track in the opposite direction. Then the views will be different, maybe better.
It's called Clifden's Loop 1 (out of 4).
Many cars all the route.

Des de la vila de Clifden seguim la carretera principal cap amunt (nord) uns 2,5km fins trobar a mà esquerra una carretereta estreta "sky road".
Aquí comença el traçat de carretera estreta anomenada Sky Road.
Primer per la part interior (nord) vorejant el llac. Després es gira cap a l'esquerra cap a l'oceà. Hi ha dues opcions: lower sky road o "higher" sky road. Aquí escullo "higher" per tenir vistes més altes. La low va més a nivell de mar.
I torna cap a Clifden, és l'anomenat Loop 1 de Clifden (de 4).
La contra és que la carretereta és estreta, i passen bastants cotxes.
