Starting in Manorhamilton the route takes you out the N16 in the direction of Sligo and then take the first left turn (L2169) to Dromahair through very quiet countryside.
From Dromahair continue on towards Drumkeeran / Drumshanbo direction. After approx. 10km you come to a T junction (known locally as the Factory Cross). Here you turn left back along the R280 towards Manorhamilton via the village of Killargue (Cill Fhearga). As you enter the village you will see the sign for the local Holy Well and Lime Kiln on your right. This site is well worth a visit! From Killargue it is just 10km back to Manorhamilton.
