The full length of the trail is 105km. This includes 14km on ferries and an optional 10km cycle around Clare Island. The mainland section from Cloughmore on Achill Island to Roonagh is 81km. The Clew Bay Bike Trail includes two short ferry journeys, one between Roonagh Pier (near Louisbugh) and Clare Island, and another between Clare Island and Achill Island at Cloughmore. This looped cycle experience is available when the ferries operate.
