Killeshandra, viewed from the Croghan River Killeshandra is a rural village set in the middle of the unspoilt countryside of Co Cavan. Surrounded by green fields, forests, lakes and rivers it offers the visitor a relaxed and enjoyable break from the frantic rush of everyday city life. The visitor to Killeshandra will discover that there is a wealth of things to do and see. The town is situated among some of the best fishing rivers and lakes in country.
Trout fishing is also available in a number of lakes.
For the last number of years the town has hosted the King of Clubs Championship. There is a local angling club which provides advice and assistance to visitors. Bait, tackle and boats are available on request. The Town Lake, on the outskirts on the town, is an ideal venue for all sorts of water sports. After purchasing 'The Strand', a half mile length of the lake shore, Killeshandra Community Council proceded to develop it by building a ramp and pier.
