This loop follows green arrows along the embankment of the Shannon Headrace as far as Parteen Weir, returning along the banks of the River Shannon. Apart from the climb up the road to join the embankment and descent off it, this is a level walk on grassy and riverside paths. It is a very pleasant countryside walk although some of the riverbank may be wet.
