This trip will explore Annaghmore Fen, which is divided between Cos. Laois and Offaly. This site is one of the largest fens in Cos. Laois and Offaly and many typical fen species have been recorded at this site. Other habitats include some Birch woodland, wet woodland and raised bog. We will explore part of the wetland area in both counties.

Meet at Clonalslee (N320211). The terrain will be rough and wet in parts. Dress for the weather. Bring a packed lunch.
