Explorer Tom Polldoo is a hidden cave in County Cavan, perhaps keeping its own quiet secrets from curious explorers.
Enclosure in BrackleyEnclosure · 851 ydExplorer Tom Brackley's enclosure is basically invisible until the rabbits start planning their next migration route through the dirt. The satnav will have a meltdown trying to find something that isn't there anyway. Perfect detour when the satnav has a meltdown.
Slieve RushenMountain / peak · 1653 ydExplorer Tom The dome of Slieve Rushen is visible from the viaduct in County Cavan, looking like a gentle giant resting its head.
Tory HoleCave · 1.3 miExplorer Tom Tory Hole is a mysterious cave in County Cavan that might just be hiding a few local legends.
Bawnboy HouseCountry house · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Bawnboy House is posting photos of its walled garden on social media, but let's be honest, it’s in poor condition. The Italianate style is trying too hard, like a guy wearing sunglasses indoors. Bring your phone and tell it to stop filtering out the peeling paint. It’s got creeper memories.
Brackley HouseHouse · 1.6 miExplorer Tom Brackley House in Brackley is flirting with me via its weird gabled wings. Patrick Brady designed it in 1830s style but it looks like a superhero cape. Take a picture for me if you pass!
Rowan1.8 miExplorer Tom Rowan in County Cavan nearly got famous when a celebrity claimed they dreamed of it, but then forgot to come back. Find a local and ask them the real story, then come back and tell me if it involves aliens or just bad weather.
Hawthorn2.0 miExplorer Tom Hawthorn in County Cavan started from a bet two lads made in the pub about who could grow the prickliest bush. One of them lost his thumb, probably. Bring biscuits, every good story needs biscuits, especially one involving thorns and regret.

Court tomb in Doon (ballyconnell Ed)Court tomb · 3.5 miExplorer Tom Court tomb in Doon is dual-chambered and overgrown with bushes, like it’s trying to hide from the public eye. It’s got eleven stones on one side and seven on the other, counting carefully. Best enjoyed with a bag of chips and no plans for the rest of the day.
Killycluggin StoneVisitor information · 3.7 miExplorer Tom Check out this inscribed plaque at Killycluggin Stone; it tells a local story that is simply waiting to be read.
Molly MountainMountain / peak · 3.9 mi
Tullydermot FallsWaterfall · 5.0 miExplorer Tom Tullydermot Falls thunder down from the Claddagh River’s upper reaches, sending misty chills up your spine in Cavan.
