The Maumturks or Maamturks (Irish: Sléibhte Mhám Toirc; mountains of the boar's pass)[b] is a mountain range in Connemara,[c] County Galway, in the west of Ireland. It is a long, broadly-straight range, consisting of weathered quartzite peaks in its central section. The Maumturks lie east of the Twelve Bens, on the other side of Lough Inagh and the Inagh Valley (a Western Way route).
