Best Walking Trails in Leitrim

Even though Leitrim is Ireland’s smallest county, it offers everything from family walks exploring the gentle woodland and lakeside walks to the more adventurous hiking. Experience the majesty of Lough Allen and the wild uplands of Sliabh an Iarainn

The Shannon Blueway is one of Leitrim’s many assets. This experience can offer an adventure in itself as you complete the entire trail, but equally it invites you to experience peace and tranquillity through nature while making family memories that cannot be forgotten.

A series of on-water and land based trails run from Leitrim through Roscommon to county Longford. The water trails have accessibility for canoes, stand-up paddle boards and kayaks, offering access to over 100km of paddling area. The walking and cycling trails start on Ireland’s first floating boardwalk at Acres Lake in Drumshanbo.
