Lough Derg Blueway - Killaloe to Twomilegate (Ballycuggeran)

Enter the Killaloe canal at the car park on the bridge, travel upstream (north), under the pedestrian and the road bridge and then portage around the small water barrier via the small slip, thereafter exit the canal onto the river. Continue along the left bank (west), pay attention to motor traffic at the entrance to the two nearby large marinas. The river then broadens out at the site of Brian Boru’s fort (2 km). The bank is dotted by three small bays and a number of houses and small private piers. Pass around the narrow tree lined headland, which has a number of pontoons along its edge and then finish the trail at the grass or pier area.
