The River Shannon.......... for a relaxing barging vacation
Far removed from the hustle and bustle of modern living, lies the lordly river Shannon. A profusion of lakes and streams, meandering effortlessly through some of the most beautiful scenery in Ireland. The most extensive inland waterway in Ireland and Britain, with over 300km of navigable flowing waters. The Shannon is set amidst one of Europe’s
most environmentally pure and spectacular landscapes. It’s tranquil
atmosphere and unhurried pace invites you to completely unwind and
savour the pleasures of floating through Ireland’s inland waterways.
Explore the lengends and myths
What better way to explore the very heart of Ireland than cruising on the lovely SHANNON PRINCESS II.
Unshroud a river wrapped in legends, myths and the gentle mists of
time, Slip through a countryside little changed over the centuries as
we pass by Ancient monasteries, prehistoric Cities, Fairy forts and
Celtic Villages.Norman Keeps and Viking Towers cast a watchful eye on
the SHANNON PRINCESS II as she floats through the
Shannon’s unspoiled waterways. Set your watch to Shannon time, as
wandering waters pass fishermen, wild deer and grazing horses.
Kingfishers and wild orchids splash colour across our day. Gliding
birds of prey swoop and dive for leaping salmon on their way
upstream.We pass through locks, bridges, forest park and ancient mountains as we set our course for any of the Shannon’s charming villages.
