Killaloe: River Shannon Guided eBike Tour

Experience the best of Ireland’s natural beauty and rich engineering history on the River Shannon Guided eBike Tour, departing from charming Killaloe. This guided cycling adventure takes you across the historic bridge into Ballina, County Tipperary, and along scenic new cycling paths that follow the river’s edge.

As you pedal through Birdhill, you’ll have the chance to admire the village’s celebrated parklands and striking public artworks. Pause for a relaxing coffee or lunch at local favorites such as The Old Barracks or Matt the Threshers, or save your appetite for a delicious stop in O'Brien's Bridge later in the journey.

The route continues along quiet country roads and through tranquil landscapes, crossing the railway line and descending to the riverbank at Montpelier. You’ll cross the river again at O'Brien's Bridge, then head off-road toward the impressive Parteen Weir, choosing between an access road or a scenic riverside footpath.

At Parteen Weir, marvel at this remarkable feat of early 20th-century engineering, which split the Shannon to power the historic Ardnacrusha hydroelectric station. Take in sweeping views of the river and appreciate the bold vision that shaped the region’s past.

The return journey brings you back through O'Brien's Bridge, with the chance for a coffee break at Nellie's before continuing through the peaceful countryside of County Clare. Relish the quiet rural roads and stunning vistas as you make your way to the tour’s end in picturesque Killaloe.
