Some of the larger or better-known rivers of Ireland are shown on this map (large version). The longest river in Ireland is the River Shannon, at 360.5 kilometres (224.0 mi). The river develops into three lakes along its course, Lough Allen, Lough Ree and Lough Derg. Of these, Lough Derg is the largest.
At a total length of 360.5 km (224 miles), it is the longest river in Ireland. [13] That the Shannon is the longest river in the British Isles was evidently known in the 12th century, although a map of the time showed this river as flowing out of the south of Ireland. [3]
