You can follow pleasant footpaths south along the canal from Ballinamore and enjoy some lovely views of the countryside on the way. Much of the path is also suitable for cyclists.
You can continue your waterside walking in the area by heading to nearby Ballyconnell where you can enjoy a stroll along the canalised section of the Woodford River on the Ballyconnell Canal Walk.
