A number of fabulous visitor attractions are within a short drive of Lough Allen and there is a host of activities available locally including Angling, Boat Trips, Canoeing, Cycling, Forest, Golf, Hill Walking, Historical Sites, Horse-Riding, Pubs, Restaurants, Sailing, Scenic Walks, Walking Trails and Water Sports.

An annual festival, An Tostal, with emphasis on Irish music, singing and dancing is held in Drumbshanbo each year. A heritage centre in the market house reflects the area's special links with narrow-gauge steam trains, coal-mining, and also features local folklore.
