Get ready for one of the most dramatic views in Leitrim at Eagles Rock, the tallest free-standing rock tower in Ireland. From the small car park, you'll embark on a challenging 3km round-trip hike that takes about 1.5 to 2 hours. The path across the open farmland can be steep and rugged, so you'll want proper hiking boots, but the breathtaking sight of the rock and the sweeping Glenade Valley is a magnificent reward for your efforts. It's a peaceful spot, perfect for escaping the crowds and soaking in the wild Irish landscape.
