In addition to being home to one of the most important Mesolithic sites in Ireland, this 2,000 hectare site of cutaway bog, just 3km north of Kilcormac, is now home to countless species of birds and wildlife, four fish-filled lakes and the Sculpture Park – a permanent exhibition of huge outdoor sculptures created from old industrial materials of the bog that once occupied this land.

Lough Boora Discovery Park proves to be the perfect destination for those who would enjoy angling in one of the various lakes, cycling along the 22km worth of biking trails or walking along the additional 50km of walking paths, each trail varying in length and difficulty. And it’s free to visit, and open all year round!
