This section of the Great Western Greenway is an extension of the main section between Westport and Achill Sound. This section runs between Achill Sound and Cashel and will eventually travel further westwards to Keel. It provides an alternative traffic free route for walkers or cyclists who would previously had to use the R319. The greenway includes 400 metres of wide boardwalk.
