Directions and Routes from Dublin to Galway

ROUTES - DUBLIN TO GALWAY - DIRECTIONS, MAIN ROADS AND DISTANCE - IRELAND

The drive from Dublin to Galway is over 100 miles and will take approximately 3 hours. Via the M50 - Take the N6 goes through Maynooth, Enfield, Kinnegad (take the first exit road off the roundabout just before Kinnegad town), Tyrrellspass, Moate, Athlone, Ballinasloe, Loughrea and Oranmore.

Some towns are bypassed, with others the N6 goes through the main street offering a fascinating glimpse of daily life in Ireland. On approaching Oranmore you will arrive at the first roundabout called ‘Oranbeg’ take the 3rd exit towards Galway City.

Avoid this drive on a Friday evening - it always seems to be jam-packed. A stop-off in Athlone for some quality food is always worth it.
