County Roscommon tourism offers a rural slice of Ireland, with lakes, ancient Celtic sites and a moving famine history. Lough Key Forest Park has islands, a treetop walk and a castle, Strokestown Park includes a stately home and the Irish National Famine Museum, and Rathcroghan is the legendary seat of Queen Maeve. Roscommon sits on the Shannon, so boating, fishing and cycling are popular. The county is far from the tourist trails and offers peaceful stays; it is about 2 hours from Dublin and handy for Sligo and Leitrim.
