Delphi, County Mayo
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Delphi (/ˈdɛlfaɪ/[1] or /ˈdɛlfi/; Greek: Δελφοί, [ðelˈfi])[2] is a locality in County Mayo, Ireland. Its English name was coined by the Marquis of Sligo, who built a famous hunting lodge there.[3]
It is located on the Owengar River that connects Fin Lough to Doo Lough, between the fjord of Killary Harbour to the south and the Sheeffry Hills to the north, in a valley surrounded by the Mweelrea Mountains and the neighbouring peaks of Ben Creggan and Ben Gorm.[3] The R335 road passes through it.
