The best time to go to Lanesborough is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is at its most pleasant, and the days are long.During this period, you'll experience milder temperatures, typically ranging from 15°C to 20°C, making it ideal for outdoor activities. The longer daylight hours, with sunsets often after 9 PM, provide ample opportunity to explore the local area, enjoy the Shannon River, and partake in fishing or boating.For those who enjoy angling, the late spring (May) and early autumn (September) can also be excellent. The water levels on Lough Ree and the River Shannon are usually good then, and the fishing for pike and coarse fish is often at its peak, without the busier summer crowds.
