Roscommon might not always steal the spotlight, but it’s full of hidden gems like Lough Key Forest Park, where visitors can zip-line through the trees or explore abandoned castle ruins. The Arigna Mining Experience is a unique way of diving into Ireland’s coal mining history, with former miners leading underground tours. For history lovers, Rathcroghan is a must-visit—it’s said to be the entrance to the Otherworld in Irish mythology and the ancient seat of Connacht’s kings. The county also hosts the Roscommon Lamb Festival, a quirky celebration of the county’s strong sheep farming tradition.
