The tranquil waterside village of Cloondara in County Longford overlooks the impressive, stone-cut Richmond Harbour. This is where the Royal Canal meets with the mighty River Shannon having journeyed across Ireland from Dublin – an ideal spot to start or finish an adventure along the Royal Canal Way.

Great cycling path along the Royal Canal away from traffic.

Corlea bog mossy and waterlogged grounds can be challenging. But if you can, this unique environment is beautiful to ride through.

Lanesborough is a pretty town on the banks of the Shannon. The town is popular for watersports and its rich ecology including mixed woodlands and freshwater marsh.

The royal canal ends in this tranquil village into a beautiful cut-stone Richmond harbour. Here there are a number of pubs to have a bite to eat and admire the view.

Would be beautiful on a sunnier day

Quiet forest with hardpark gravel tracks. Not too technical or difficult trails, but nice riding none the less.

Loughcrew Cairns (also known as Loughcrew Passage Tombs, Megalithic Cementary or Sliabh na Callaighe (Mountain of the Witch) is a truly magical place. According to the website "Sliabh na Callaighe is the Irish name for the hills and it translates to “Mountain of the Witch”. The story goes that to rule over all of Ireland the Hag (or witch) had to complete a feat of enormous strength. She had to leap from hill to hill with stones in her apron. As she jumped from peak to peak she dropped a handful of stones. These stones became the cairns. On her final jump, to make her mistress over all of Ireland, she broke her neck and was buried under the stones on the side of the hill."
