SLIGO: A MEGALITHIC ODYSSEY - Carrowkeel, Carrowmore and Knocknarea

I recently went on something of a megalithic odyssey to County Sligo, to see some of our most ancient stone age monuments in the spectacular setting of the landscape of the Atlantic northwest. In one day, I visited the megalithic complex of Carrowkeel, on the Bricklieve Mountains near Lough Arrow, the Carrowmore complex, where I was guided by the wonderful Martin Byrne, and finally I climbed Knocknarea to visit Queen Medb's Cairn.
In this Mythical Ireland special video, first released for Mythical Ireland patrons at the Bronze Age reward level and above, I chronicle that wonderful adventure among some of our most ancient Neolithic monuments.
