Active Age Midweek Breaks Clare
Active Age Midweek Breaks Clare. Visit the beautiful historical twin towns of Ballina and Killaloe which span the River Shannon at the southern point of Lough Derg for your golden years breaks in Clare. Steeped in history, you can explore such breath taking sites as Brian Boru’s Fort (11th century) and St. Flannans Cathedral (13th Century).
Killaloe, on the Clare side of the river, is made up of charming narrow streets, flanked by old shops along the steep hill looking down over the 13th century cathedral. The town was home to Brian Boru, the High King who united Ireland against the Vikings, so this picture perfect town with its Victorian streets and old canal banks was once capital of all Ireland.
Ballina on the Tipperary side, offers a newly rejuvenated tree lined Park along the riverbank on what was once a railway line, with plentiful moorings and Derg Marina catering for the leisure craft that make Killaloe/Ballina one of the best centres for water activity breaks in Ireland. You will find first-class pubs and eateries along the Main Street and old quayside.
