    County WestmeathCounty Westmeath is known for its waterways, an intricate network of lakes, canals and the great River Shannon. The verdant river banks thrill with wild birds such as the rare corncrake. You can hire a pleasure cruiser to explore these enchanting waterways for yourself, perhaps stopping for an afternoon of course or trout angling or for a picnic on the river bank.  

    The flat green landscape is particularly suitable for cycling. Golf and horse riding are also popular outdoor activities.  

    Athlone is a historic town on the banks of the River Shannon. This site was historically significant and the Normans built Athlone Castle here in 1210. Visitors are welcome to visit the castle where a multimedia exhibition tells the story of Athlone through the ages. The castle is also home to a military museum with many Irish army uniforms from the last three centuries. Pleasure cruisers can be hired in Athlone.
