About this Event

Free Sligo Walking Tour is an in-person event. Did you know that prisoners in Sligo Gaol once used a treadmill to pump water from the Garavogue River? Or that the Garavogue is said to be the shortest river in Ireland?

From curious inventions and hidden histories to the river that runs through the heart of the town, Sligo has some fascinating stories to tell about water.

Join Mel from Sligo Walking Tours for a free guided walking tour as part of Science Week, as we explore Sligo's relationship with water through science, history and a few surprising facts along the way.
