Tuamgraney is a historic village in East Clare, situated on the shores of Lough Derg. It’s home to St. Cronán’s Church, one of the oldest churches in continuous use in Ireland. The village forms part of the scenic East Clare Way, a long-distance walking trail through the region’s lakes and hills.

When touring Killaloe, the charm of the town can best be captured on the banks of the canal. The route runs along the water and always offers a view over the river to Ballina and the historic Killaloe Bridge. The soothing rippling, the boats gently rocking and the lush green banks can be wonderfully enjoyed from the saddle. The town itself is full of small cafes and restaurants - an ideal place to take a break or start or end the tour. The road itself has a few bumpy spots, but the scenery easily makes up for that.

As you cycle through the quiet streets near the coast, the view suddenly opens up to the atmospheric castle ruins of Muckinish West Tower House. Nestled in the wide, green landscape, with the sea in the background, this place offers the perfect opportunity for a quick stop and a photo. The old castle stands alone above the coast, and although it is now surrounded by a fence and in a dilapidated state, this is precisely what gives it a special atmosphere. The path to the ruins takes you along typical Irish stone walls that meander picturesquely through the landscape. While you admire the castle ruins from a distance, you have a fantastic view across the water to Finavarra. It is one of those places that makes you pause - the peace and the wide panorama invite you to simply take in the surroundings before continuing on two wheels.

If you are riding through Killaloe, make sure you pedal along Canal Bank for great views over the water to Ballina and Killaloe Bridge. There are plenty of places to eat and drink in the town, which also makes it a perfect start and/or finish point on a ride.

A ruined castle in an atmospheric location. Views over the water to Finavarra make this a stop to take a photo moment. The castle itself is fenced off as it is in a state of severe disrepair so it is best to admire it from a distance.

The ruined church dates from medieval times and sits on an ancient monastic site founded by St Mogue. In the graveyard is an interesting old cross to the south east of the ruins.

The KIllaloe Bridge spans the boundary between County Clare to the south west and County Tipperary to the north east. It crosses the River Shannon and is unique for such a long bridge in that it only has one lane for traffic.
