GUEST,leeneia BS: Narrowboating on the Shannon? (26) RE: BS: Narrowboating on the Shannon? 22 Jun 15


"Lough Erne is a vast network of interconnecting loughs, rivers and backwaters unfolds and would take a lifetime to explore. These waters are framed by magnificent country - lush green rolling meadows give way to craggy uplands with spectacular cliffs that then lead on to uninterrupted open moorland. This is truly breathtaking lakeland, unrivalled throughout Europe.

From the loughs the night sky is jet black and studded with a panorama of brilliant stars. The long summer days are so peaceful - hardly another boat will interrupt your calm. There are numerous free moorings along the waterway, many on uninhabited islands - just you and your family.

Lower Lough Erne, the most northerly of the two loughs, is a great expanse of open water fringed by mountains and dotted with islands. Upper Lough Erne is filled with dozens of islands, so it is more like a meandering river than a lake. Some islands have jetties and offer perfect lunchtime picnic stops."

Upper Lough Erne sounds like a great place to get lost.
