At 360 kilometres (224 mi) in length, the magnificent River Shannon is the longest in Ireland. The river rises on Cuilcagh Mountain before flowing through green landscapes towards the Atlantic Ocean. According to Irish mythology, the Shannon was named after Sionann, granddaughter of the sea god Lir. She is said to have gone to the river to find wisdom, but drowned and was carried out to sea. The Shannon hosts diverse plant life and wildlife such as salmon, kingfishers, and even bottlenose dolphins in the Shannon Estuary.

Tullygobban Tomb is over 4000 years old and is aligned to face the sunset on the shortest day of the year, the Winter Solstice. Look south towards the cairn atop Cullcagh Mountain and you will see that the summit, this tomb, the Calf House Tomb and an erratic boulder all lie up.

The Cavan Burren Park is interesting in three ways: archaeological, geological and cultural. But of course there is also something here for hikers looking for relaxation, because the landscape is beautiful. Here you will discover a mystical landscape at the foot of the Cuilcagh Mountains, which is peppered with megalithic tombs and ruins of ancient huts.

The source of the Shannon is 76 m above sea level in the Cuilcagh Mountains in County Cavan in the north-west of the country. From here it first flows through an underground cave system and comes back to the surface as Shannon Pot. It drains the boggy center of Ireland and flows through lakes rich in fish. The largest of them are Lough Allen, Lough Ree, and Lough Derg. North of Limerick, the river forms rapids. To the west of Limerick it pours through an approximately 100 km long estuary into the Atlantic. The estuary is heavily influenced by the tides. (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shannon_(Fluss))
