The Longford stretch of the Royal Canal Greenway, a flat, traffic-free towpath that suits young cyclists and buggies. Follow the old canal past harbours, hump-backed bridges and the Whitworth Aqueduct at Abbeyshrule, with herons, hares and kestrels to spot along the way. Do a gentle stretch with little ones or a longer leg with older kids. Free, with bike hire from local operators in Clondra, Ballymahon and Abbeyshrule.
