Walking
Mayo is a lightly populated and largely rural county, lending itself ideally to walking. The scenery is spectacular and the variety of terrain interesting - some areas are level and easygoing, ideal for strollers, while the hills, mountains and bogs offer a stiff challenge to the accomplished walker.
There are a number of superb marked loop walks from Newport, and surrounding areas, encompassing lakes, hills and coastline:
| Newport: | Newport Town | 3km |
| Derryloughan | 6km | |
| Derryhillagh | 9km | |
| Doogary | 13km | |
| Desradda: | Lettermaghera | 7km |
