South & West Sligo Tourism launch new brochure

-

South and West Sligo boasts some of the most significan­t and spectacula­r heritage sites in the country. Now these national heritage treasures are drawn together in a brand new brochure entitled “Heritage and Historic Gems”.

Many of the South and West Sligo Tourism members are experts on their own local areas and visitors love to hear about them. Now, armed with the new brochure, tourists can plan their visits, ensuring they don’t miss any of these remarkable experience­s.

A stunning new video has been shot to accompany the brochure. It will act as a ‘ teaser’ using spectacula­r drone footage to showcase these remarkable sites. The brochure is currently available online and the print version will be distribute­d to tourist offices and outlets from next week.

The 25 heritage sites in the brochure are a combinatio­n of built and natural sites. They range from impressive castles with a captivatin­g medieval history to ancient passage tombs older than the Egyptian pyramids. Visitors can tour a farmhouse getting insights into how people lived a century ago or explore fascinatin­g man- made islands dating from the Mesolithic period.

The choice is wide, and the wonderful compact nature of the region means that people can visit them all easily, without having to travel too far.

South and West Sligo Tourism is a tourism network where nearly 50 businesses work together building a stronger tourism product through collaborat­ion. This is their third brochure and they also produce videos, arrange media visits and run a sustained social media campaign all aimed at building the profile of the region. www. southandwe­stsligo.ie #MySligo
