Wild Nephin National Park - Experience one of Europe's last great wilderness landscapes.

Located in the remote Owenduff and Nephin Mountains of north west County Mayo, Wild Nephin National Park is one of Ireland's most unspoilt natural environments. Established in 1998, the park protects over 117 square kilometres of spectacular Atlantic blanket bog, mountains, rivers and wilderness, making it one of the largest expanses of peatland in Europe.

The park is renowned for its dramatic scenery, peaceful landscapes and exceptional biodiversity. This internationally important habitat supports a wide variety of native wildlife and plant species, while its extensive blanket bog plays a vital role in conserving one of Ireland's most valuable natural ecosystems.

Wild Nephin National Park forms part of the Owenduff/Nephin Complex, which has been designated as both a candidate Special Area of Conservation and a Special Protection Area within the Natura 2000 network. These designations recognise the area's outstanding importance for wildlife conservation and habitat protection.

Visitors can enjoy scenic walking trails, mountain hikes, wildlife watching and outstanding opportunities for photography while experiencing one of Ireland's true wilderness areas. The park is also internationally recognised as one of the country's premier locations for dark skies, offering spectacular opportunities for stargazing on clear nights.
