Caherconnell Fort & Sheepdog Demonstrations

Visit the magnificent Caherconnell Fort, a ringfort that's over 1,000 years old. The trained guides take visitors through its exciting history and archaeology to see what life was like for people who lived there in ancient times. Plan a trip around one of the sheepdog demonstrations, which take place daily from the middle of March to October. Check out the combined skills of the border collies and the master shepherd John. Meet Rose, Gill and Sally, and learn how the dogs are trained. There will also be plenty of time for cuddles with the dogs and photos afterwards. Refresh and revive at the Mountain Haven Café, with a range of delicious soups, sandwiches, salads and homemade goodies.
