Questions people ask

How long is Owenriff Way?
Measured along the line OpenStreetMap draws, 3.3 km. No published figure has been found for it.
Where does Owenriff Way start?
The map does not name a start. The line begins 710 m from Oughterard, which is where the map is drawn from rather than a waymarked trailhead.
Is it open today?
This page holds no closure notice for it, which is not the same as knowing it is open. Cliff paths and forest routes close after storms and during works, and those notices are published by the operator rather than on the map. The link above goes to whoever manages it.

Where this comes from

The route
The line, the name, the colour and the waymark are the OpenStreetMap relation relation/16736252, and can be corrected there.
Worked out here
The measured distance, whether the line is continuous, which settlement is nearest the start and every distance on this page are this site’s own calculations from that relation, last built on 2026-09-20. No climb is measured here, and no time is estimated: a walking time appears only where an operator publishes one.
