Dowra is a picturesque village in northwest County Cavan, located near the source of the River Shannon. The village is rich in history, and is along the Beara-Breifne Way, making it a popular destination for nature lovers and history enthusiasts alike.

Would not regard the Sligo Road from Enniskillen to Belcoo as a cycle friendly road. Extremely poor surface for considerable stretches, very bendy in places too. I live in Enniskillen; have cycled it but would avoid it if at all possible. Cycling via Five Points , on Swanlinbar Road; then via old rail line from old Letterbreen railway station towards Lough MacNean ; or take road from Five Points towards Gortatole is a far more pleasant and safer option.

Heading out towards Annagh loop, along the Ballyconnell canal you can enjoy the quite river landscape on mixed towpath and singletrack terrain.

This stretch of road runs between Town Lake and Broompark Lough making it a perfect spot to stop and have a picnic or rest stop. Beautiful views all round!

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.

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.

The canal is 63km long in total and links the River Shannon and the River Erne. It began life as the Ballinamore-Ballyconnell canal in 1846 and after falling into disrepair with the decline in industry, it was refurbished as a leisure canal from the 1960s.
