The old peat train can be seen from afar and is a great photo opportunity

What a great photo opportunity! This abandoned train with a lock is exposed in the landscape and invites you to go on extensive sightseeing tours and photo sessions.

The sculptures and the whole sculpture display concept at the Lough Boora Parklands are awesome. It is meant to remind you that this are was once a peat bog and a lot of harvesting was done here. The amazing Sky Train sculpture is a reminder that they even used trains to transport the peat.
