Take the guided tour through the remote lost valley and hear fascinating stories of old ways, abandoned villages and famine times. In the vicinity of this attraction is a series of remote sandy beaches, excellent for scenic walks and frequented by very few people.

The Bourke Family offer a fully guided cultural adventure, on well developed trails that is suitable for all ages. Duration is 3 hours approximately as the heritage and history of The Lost Valley is recounted and explained, while we make our way at a relaxed, leisurely pace on a well developed trail along the different points of interest in the valley. As The Lost Valley is now an active working farm, visitors can experience life on the farm with pet lamb feeding, a working sheep dog demonstration and a sheep shearing demonstration in season on request. Please wear sensible footwear, shoes or trainers. The Lost Valley has remained largely untouched since the villagers were evicted and driven out during ‘The Great Famine’ of the mid 1800’s. The tumbled down walls of their cabins, the multitude of potato plots they left behind, even the stones removed from the rocky soil remain in clusters, exactly as they left them, giving testament to the hardships endured by these Celtic people.
