About Leenaun

Leenaun sits where Connemara's mountains drop into Killary Harbour, Ireland's only natural fjord. The village straddles the N59, making it a handy stop between Galway (70km east) and Westport (40km north), with three fast EV chargers for those touring the Wild Atlantic Way. The roads are narrow and twisty through remote terrain, but the views are grand. You might recognize the harbour from "The Field" with Richard Harris, as the dramatic inlet served as the film's backdrop.
