Welcome to the Northern Part of Lough Derg. I'm Dergie and i'm here to help you have a super holiday on Lough Derg, in Ireland's Shannon Region. In this section, I have listed visitor information for the Northern part of Lough Derg together with ideas, suggestions and recommendations. Keep an eye out for them.
What enjoyment, exploration and relaxation opportunities await you when you visit the towns, villages and harbours of Lough Derg North!
Moving northwards from the attractive marina centres of Portumna and Terryglass on the lake’s northern tip, you will encounter a variety of fascinating communities on or close to the majestic River Shannon.
Banagher, Shannon Harbour and Shannon Bridge are just some of the major riverside locations along the way as the river cuts a dramatic line down between counties Galway, Offaly and North Tipperary on its way to the lake.
If you venture a little inland, there are many interesting centres with fine amenities to explore such as the distinctive Georgian town of Birr.
