Erne Waterway Day
Enniskillen is at the centre of the Erne Waterway system.
You get there from Monaghan by travelling south-west to Clones, before heading north-west through Newtownbutler, Lisnaskea and Lisbellaw.
The town of Enniskillen is beautifully situated between two channels of the river joining Upper and Lower Lough Erne, and is now one of the most popular, yet uncrowded cruising centres in the country.
After lunch in the town the most rewarding route is to continue north-west along the southern shore of Lower Lough Erne, passing through the village of Tully and enjoying fine views along the way.
Further west the lake narrows in the Rive Erne, flowing past Belleek on the County Donegal border.
Belleek is noted for its famous chinaware and the pottery has a gift shop, exhibition centre and cafe, with guided tours available.
