Killary Sheep Farm Details
Come take an authentic look at farm life in Ireland. This sheep farm is a traditional working Connemara mountain farm which has been in the same family for generations. It has approximately 200 ewes and lambs who roam freely in the mountains overlooking Killary Fjord. On arrival visitors are met by Tom the farmer and have the option to be outfitted with outdoor footwear and rainwear supplied by the farm.
Tom starts off the farm tour with a sheepdog herding demonstration. These extremely smart dogs are trained from puppies and it is incredible to watch them in action! In the summer months (June to August), Tom shears the sheep by traditional methods with hand shears. It is an old farm tradition not often seen anymore. From the farm you can see spectacular, sweeping views of Killary Fjord and the mountain ranges beyond.
If there are lambs about (and there usually are), you can count on a few needing bottle-feeding. You're welcome to lend a hand!
