Killaloe-Ballina Walking Tour

Welcome to the beautiful and historic twin towns of Killaloe and Ballina.
This self-guided walk follows the Canal and the River Shannon, taking you past nine information panels, each with an old image and description of the place in its time.
You will also find out about the trades associated with these waterways and how they shaped our twin towns.

Created by the Killaloe-Ballina Local History Society, with support from Waterways Ireland, we really hope you enjoy your experience! 

This walking tour is available through the PocketSights app, which is free to download.  We have also printed a detailed brochure and uploaded an audio guide for each stop of the tour on SoundCloud.
