Lough Erne refers to an upper and lower lake system in County Fermanagh, connected by the River Erne and scattered with numerous low-lying islands, many containing early Christian remains. Devenish Island in Lower Lough Erne preserves a well-maintained round tower and monastic complex accessible by ferry. The lake system is a significant attraction for coarse fishing, boating, and water sports, and is surrounded by a tranquil drumlin landscape of green hills and mixed woodland.
