Moycullen, Co. Galway

Moycullen (Irish: Maigh Cuilinn) is a suburban village 13km northwest of Galway City. It is located near Lough Corrib, on the N59 road to Oughterard and Clifden in Connemara. Its Irish name, Maigh Cuilinn, means Plain of Holly, or Plain of Cullen (a local giant).

Although a gateway to the various trout angling centres on the western shore of Lough Corrib, Moycullen is also an ideal coarse angling centre with Ballyquirke and Ross Lakes just a cast away.
