Lough Gill & Innisfree

The beautiful Lough Gill inspired Yeats to write his famous Poem “The Lake Isle of Innisfree”…
 
Lough Gill meaning radiant lake is a freshwater lough that inspired W.B. Yeats to write his poem “The Lake Isle of Innisfree”.
 
From Lake Isle of Innisfree by W.B. Yeats:
 
“I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,
And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made;
Nine bean rows will I have there, a hive for the honeybee,
And live alone in the bee-loud glade.”
 
Innisfree Island is not accessible but you can view it from the shore at Parke’s Castle or take a boat tour of Lough Gill:
