- Relax and recharge
- One day
Where to base yourself
Lower Lough Erne lakeshore
Starting on the shore keeps the boat trip and the Lough Navar drive on the same side of the county.
Your one-day plan
One day: the lakeshore and Magho Viewpoint
- Late-morning skippered boat trip on Lower Lough Erne.
- Lunch at a lakeshore hotel, without moving far.
- Afternoon drive through Lough Navar Forest to Magho Viewpoint, about 40 minutes from Enniskillen.
- Early evening meal in Enniskillen before you leave.
Book the boat trip ahead; sailings and the forest drive both depend on current conditions.
