With lakes, rivers and canals, Cavan in the East is a county steeped in possibility. From tranquil angling in bounteous fish-filled lakes to gliding down the River Shannon in a luxury cruiser, Cavan’s natural treasures are just waiting to be explored.

Even if a holiday near or by the water doesn’t suit, there’s a whole host of ways to enjoy this peaceful county – try trekking on horseback through the charming countryside, playing a round of golf at a scenic course, or walking through the hills and valleys of one of the  North West’s most scenic spots.
