Activities in County Offaly

  1. Clonmacnoise & West Offaly Railway Bog Tour

    Ride a train into the heart of the Blackwater Bog on this tour which runs on a narrow-gauge railway line once used to transport peat. The diesel locomotive moves at around 10km per hour - slow enough to take in the landscape and its special flora, which has remained unchanged for thousands of years. Stops let you try peat cutting.
