Ireland's Hidden Heartlands

Ireland’s green heartlands are filled with natural beauty! It’s an area where you can enjoy activities and relaxation in rural communities. The Hidden Heartlands lifestyle is discoverable in a lattice of land and water trails, anchored by the iconic River Shannon and the Beara Breifne Way.

There are so many things to do for all ages along the length of the Shannon beside the beautiful lakes or along the quiet rural byways that criss-cross this picturesque part of Ireland.

Enjoy leisurely boat trips, water sports and great fishing or take in the views on walks, cycle trails and pony trekking trails. You can also explore the rural heartlands and small villages in this serene, relaxing part of the country.
