Music & Song

The entire region is steeped in culture: music, song, and storytelling. You can time your tour to coincide with local festivals or simply enjoy the traditional entertainments available all year round.

A Night's Comfort

All accommodation used by the Trail is based in Bed & Breakfasts which have been approved by the Tourist Board. These homes will offer you a warm welcome, a secure store for your bike, and a good breakfast to set you on your way.

Alternatively, we can customise your holiday to your specific needs, basing it in hotel, hostel or luxury home. The choice is yours.

Food and Drink

Cafés, tea-rooms, bistros, traditional Irish and ethnic restaurants, hotels, and bars are all plentiful on the Trail. A wide range of refreshments, snacks, lunch and evening meals is available every step of the way. Your B&B may also be able to offer you a packed lunch, a hot drink for your flask, and a range of snacks and refreshments. Book your meals in advance or arrive casually. Ask our advice, as availability depends on the route.

The Experience

The Kingfisher Trail loops around lakes and islands, winds by rivers and streams, and passes through woods and forest and country parks. You'll cycle to scenic viewpoints as well as down rustic village streets.

Primarily based in the Fermanagh and Leitrim lakelands, the Trail also brings you to historic monuments and attractive landmarks.

Each evening, a broad selection of inviting Bed & Breakfasts ensure your comfort.

We provide the warm welcome, the quiet country roads, and excellent bicycles. And we're there to back you up.

Our routes are tailored to your needs...

• Over 300 miles of trail
• Suitable for cyclists of all levels
• New loops added in 2005 allow for shorter "Out & Back" tours — ranging from 1 day upwards

Bring you friends, your appetite for living, and we'll give you the unique experience of cycling the Kingfisher Trail. You'll go home feeling refreshed, restored, renewed. All we need is you!
