Source to Sea of the river Liffey by kayak. 

Same here, it could be a good "tourist" marathon with proper care and evaluation of stages beforehand.

😂

Thanks, It’s was a great experience and definitely had some fun navigating the ships etc in the dark.

Thanks man was a great day out! I'll try make a more informative edit on the next run.

Yes i would have thought an overnight camp would have been better !

Be pretty boring in comparison, most of the Shannon is very broad and slow if not an outright lake

Pretty it's been done

Thanks man, never to late to start!!!

Or early

Wow the Brisbane looks like an amazing decent hope all goes well. That first 100km will be a good workout for sure but when you finally hit the city it will all be worth it. Watch out for Hector....

@@Tdunphy85 Thanks - the walk so far has been great, but I do look forward to getting on the water :-)

Its a bit of a challenge alright, but with the right prep it can be enjoyed safely.

c'mon man you didnt prep anything 1:30 into the video. Just routed into a slot full of undercut and tree.@@Tdunphy85

November is a great time to do it. All to do with water levels. There needs to be a lot of rain or the first section of river is bare rock and the bottom has no flow.

Great question, great answer

Thanks, kayaked the whole river from the top in the sally gap to the bottom where it meets the sea at great south wall, but I did go around the dams.

Thanks man, yep I think it’s possible for sure just will take some time, the start is all based in a boggy area and would be slow moving but very doable. Once you get past blessington reservoir it will be a little trickier with having to cross equestrian estates, farmers fields, fences, barbed wire etc along with navigating any tributaries on the way that may not have bridges etc where needed. Once you get to celbridge things will get easier and there are paths close to the river most of the way to Dublin port. I’d say it would be a great walk and nice way to enjoy the river!

It’s a bit overgrown just after blessington so watch for fishing hooks etc, but you’ll definitely have a great trip down on sup! Enjoy

Thanks, it’s close to the crossroads of the sally gap. On the old military road.

@@Tdunphy85 I'd love to give it a crack but I'd probably start after the white water, coz I only have a touring kayak. Is there only this much water flowing in the winter? When you look at satellite images or StreetView etc it doesn't look anything what like you went down, very little water - doesn't look passable.

@@Aodhankelly rivers are high in autumn/winter..I think he said november...plus he is travelling down a decent...there is alot of flow there...

I only had to get out for the portages at the dams, and yes I past through that park late in the trip in the dark.

Come again

Laragh Pittman that’s no problem at all, thanks for the interest.

It is usually only possible while or a few hours after heavy rain, in the summer time the top 25km is not deep enough for a kayak.
