    • The ancient pilgrim path stretches from Ballintubber Abbey to Croagh Patrick. After St Patrick’s time pilgrims began to traverse that same road to the holy mountain and over time it became known as Tóchar Phádraig or St Patrick’s Causeway.

      There are five official walks organized by the Abbey in May, June, July, August, and December. Contact details as below:
