Rossinver
Village in County Leitrim, Ireland / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rossinver or Rosinver[1] (Irish: Ros Inbhir, meaning 'the peninsula of the river mouth')[2] is a small village in north County Leitrim, Ireland. The village is home to a retired monastery of the same name and is at the southern shore of Lough Melvin, home to two rare species of trout – the Gillaroo and the Sonaghan – as well as the common brown trout. There is a fishery at Eden Quay and boats and gillies are available locally. There is a mile-long river walk to Fowley's Falls on the Glenaniff River which follows a series of waterfalls.
