Delphi Lodge from the jetty on Fin Lough

Delphi (/ˈdɛlf/[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 fjordofKillary 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.

The Greek spelling transliterates as "Delphoi" (with an o); dialectal forms include BelphoiAeolian form — and DalphoiPhocian form—, as well as other Greek dialectal varieties Archived 4 March 2016 at the Wayback Machine.
