It rises in Co Kildare and flows gently and majestically through County Meath and joins the sea at Drogheda in Co Louth some 112 kilometres later. It has none of the razzmatazz of its sister, the Shannon. It’s neither the longest river in Ireland, nor does it have the greatest flow. What is does have, and by the gallon, is history. In fact, the Boyne Valley is like a time capsule. Travel along it and you travel through millennia of Irish history, from passage tombs that pre-date the Pyramids, to the Hill of Tara, seat of the High Kings of Ireland, all the way to the home of the First World War poet Francis Ledwidge in Slane. It’s the Irish equivalent of Egypt’s Valley of the Kings. And you can choose to explore it by car, bicycle, kayak, or by strolling along its banks and the towpaths of the navigation canals that run alongside from Navan to Oldbridge.” Frances Power - Editor, Cara, the Aer Lingus inflight magazine - Boyne Valley Feature, October/November 2014 Pg 68-78 Cara magazine is available online at issuu.com Contents Towns & Villages 3 Boyne Valley Drive 8 Heritage Trail 9 Golf 11 Biking & Walking 13 Horse Racing 15 Gardens 17 Travelling to Meath & Map 19 Crafts 21 Angling 23 Things to Do 25 Shopping 28 Festivals & Events 29 Accommodation 33 Food & Drink 37 1 2 Image credits: Front cover image by Stephen Keaveny - winner of the 2014 Wiki Loves Monuments national photography competition.
