They have realistic crannogs (old style homes) here and many things that the people would have used, very interesting visit

Young and old will get something out a visit to the Park . If you are interested in Irelands heritage. It gives one a good grounding and a sense of what the building and the people were like.

"The Living Past Experience" introduces an Ireland from pre- and early Christian history, with a crannog (a settlement on a created island), an ancient cooking site, an Iron Age road, a ring fort, the Brendan Boat that recreated the legendary voyage of Brendan the Navigator, and a castle from the 1500s. There are wild (fenced) Irish boars, rare breeds of... More

A local friend with historical knowledge took us to here & it proved to be a lovely day out. It is well set out & easily walkable with small kids. The shaded forest was nice respite from the sun & our girls had a ball throwing a stick to our friend's dog along the way. The displays are well set... More

This place is a great way to end a trip to Ireland. There is a Crannog, a little island with a hut, a medieval castle and a ring fort, wild boars and St Brendans castle. There is lovely porter cake in the cafe, very enjoyable!

There isn't an awful lot to see, but what's there is great. Kids will like the souterranean which is where they used to store food and... More

Well signposted attraction short drive from shannon, set in beautiful rural countryside, this breathtaking place it seems 'other wordly'.
