Dromineer

Dromineer is a small village on the northeastern shore of Lough Derg, County Tipperary, sitting on one of Ireland's largest lakes on the River Shannon.

It serves as the northern terminus of the 64 km Lough Derg Way, a long-distance waymarked walking route that follows the River Shannon and its canals from Limerick City through heritage towns and lakeside landscapes.

The village is also one of five designated trailheads for the Lough Derg Way, making it a practical starting or finishing point for walkers.

Notably, Dromineer is home to the Lough Derg Lifeboat station, the RNLI's third inland lifeboat station and the first established in Ireland. The surrounding area is popular for fishing, boating, and water sports on the lake.
