Join us for the 2.5-hour cruise through Digby Lock to experience the workings of an eighteenth-century canal lock. Your Skipper and Guide will give you a unique insight into the life, history, and biodiversity of the Grand Canal as it winds through the county Kildare countryside.
Kildare is known as the Canals County with 120 km of still waters crossing its landscape and linking its towns and villages.
Our barge is a lovingly restored traditional canal barge that is licensed to carry 12 passengers. It has a spacious comfortable interior with a wood-burning stove, on-board bar service, and outdoor seating areas.
Feel free to bring some snacks.
