Known locally as the "Wee Abbey", Clones Abbey is a ruined monastery dating back to the 12th century. The original abbey was founded by St. Tigernach as early as the 6th century. However, the abbey was destroyed by fire not once, but four times during its history. In the 16th century, the abbey suffered once again during the suppression of monasteries and Protestant reformation under Henry VIII. Less than a hundred years later, it lay in ruin, although some solitary monks still lived here until the 18th century. Today, you can visit the crumbling walls and take a look at the interesting graveyard. The abbey is free to visit and you can access it any time.

Killykeen Forest Park is full of running trails that take you through trees and along the lough shore. You can also hire kayaks and canoes to explore the water even further.

The Megalithic Tomb is hidden away in the forest, but a very short detour off the main path will bring you to the ancient burial site. The woodland setting is very humbling and magical.

Crossing the bridge in Killykeen Forest Park is a great way to appreciate Lough Oughter. It's a popular place for fishing, especially for pike.
