The shimmering waters of Lough Melvin attract anglers from around the world for its beauty and diverse fish. The lake is home to three unique species of trout, as well as salmon, and an endemic species of char, the Melvin charr. If you want to try your hand at fishing, you should purchase a license and consider renting a boat. The lake is 7.5 miles (12 km) long and 1.9 miles (3 km) wide and set amongst the beautiful green countryside along the border of County Leitrim and Country Fermanagh. If you are not into fishing, there's plenty of wonderful flora and fauna to enjoy too.

Built in the 17th century, Castle Caldwell was part of the Ulster Plantation, a province of Ireland colonised by British settles throughout King James I era. The castle had a number of inhabitants after that and fell into ruin towards the 1800s. Although access to the castle is now forbidden due to its dangerous state of repair, the surrounding park and forest can be explored freely. Keep your eyes peeled for the ruined chapel and overgrown graveyard.

Flowing from Slieve Glah to the Atlantic Ocean, the River Erme is the second longest in Ulster. The river forms part of the border, winding through the beautiful green rolling hills that Ireland is well known for. The river often becomes hard to distinguish as it passes through many Loughs below the Cavan and south Fermanagh drumlin hills. Many Christian and Pagan ancient ruins can be found along the river, some of which are perched on islands and only accessible by boat.

Flowing 80 miles (129 km) from Slieve Glah to the Atlantic Ocean, the River Erne is the second-longest river in Ulster. The river winds through beautiful countryside in both the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland, making up a part of the border. The river is sometimes hard to distinguish as it makes its way through many loughs at the feet of the Cavan and south Fermanagh drumlin hills. The dramatic landscape was once home to thriving salmon and trout populations, although hydroelectric power stations and water population have led to a decline in their numbers. Along the river lie many Christian and Pagan ancient ruins, some of which are perched atop islands and only accessible by boat.

Born in 1948 in Ballyshannon, Rory Gallagher was a renowned Irish blues and rock musician. He recorded many solo albums and also performed in the band Taste, selling over 30 million copies worldwide. Gallagher moved to Cork at a young age, where he was brought up. However, a statue was erected in Ballyshannon to pay homage to the great artist. Gallagher died in London at the young age of 47 after complications following a liver transplant.

Surrounded by green rolling countryside, Roogagh Waterfall is a pretty nature spot on the outskirts of Garrison village close to Lough Melvin. There's a short walk that leads along the river and through woodland to reach the falls. You can pick up supplies in Garrison to enjoy a packed lunch overlooking the cascading water at one of the numerous picnic benches.
