Pigeon Hole Cave

Highlight • Cave

The cave is in the forest on a small hill. There are stairs down that we couldn't climb as a rappelling course was going on. It's definitely worth looking down.

Monks' Fishing House on the River Cong

Highlight • Historical Site

The house on the Cong River was once used by the monks for fishing. There is a hole in the bottom through which the net was lowered and where it got stuck. When enough fish were caught in the net, a bell tied to the net with a string rang and the cook came down from the monastery to the river to collect the fish. Pretty imaginative!

Incidentally, the small bridge behind the abbey also gives free access to the grounds of Ashford Castle.

This area of Clonbur Woods is full of hardpacked trails and makes for a great family walk through the trees and with plenty of views of Lough Mask. The area was called the Ashford Estate up to 1939 and was previously owned by the Guinness family.
