Lough
Allen in
County
Leitrim
attracts fishermen from all over the world for its trout and pike as
well as surrounding beauty. The rest of the family can enjoy hillwalking
and
adventure sports, and fine lakeside dining as well.
Leitrim's biggest tourist attractions are its rivers and lakes and its
rich tradition of folk music and poetry.
Local
legend says that the lough is named for the goddess Aillion, who still
lives somewhere beneath the waves, and is quick to anger. Be careful
then, not to snag any fish who might be favourites of hers.In ancient
times Leitrim was part of the Kingdom of Breifne dominated by the
O'Rourke family in Dromahair, a pretty village in the north of the
county.
