Bun Invhir is in a particularly favorable position for touring Connemara. Whether you are attracted to its historical sites (abbeys, castles, prehistoric remains), or wish to attend its cultural events (the Galway Arts festival, music, poetry and dance festivals, traditional sailing boat races, pony shows), whether you wish to browse around the shops in the busy streets of Galway, or to explore the quiet coast and countryside, there is always something on and easily accessible to you. 
   You can hillwalk in the Connemara National Park, ride, play golf, tour the coast on a bicycle, sail to the Aran Islands and to Inishbofin, or fish for brown trout and salmon in the innumerable lakes and streams.
   You may also just want to relax, to stroll along the little lanes hedged with fuchsias, or have a quiet picnic on the beautiful sand beaches close by.
And in the evening, if you want any entertainment, there will almost always be some music in one of the local pubs.
