Kilcogy

united kingdom

Kilcogy lies in County Cavan along the N3, about 90 minutes from Dublin and roughly halfway to Sligo, making it a handy stop for cross-country journeys. The town sits in Ireland's lakeland region among the drumlins and small lakes that define the northern midlands. From Belfast, you'd typically take the A1/M1 south to Dundalk, then pick up the N2 and N3. The R198 connects you to Cavan town and local villages, though these smaller roads can be narrow with tight bends. Kilcogy's claim to fame is Lough Sheelin, one of Europe's top brown trout fishing destinations.
