Like a lake, but longer

A great river that has witness the history of the Irish, many noble men have crossed this river. If this river had eyes to see, ears to hear and mouth to speak it would speak tales and wonders.

Very nice place to walk around. Arquitecture its very antique and very well precerved. From there you can go to the old town and visit all the differents irish pubs where you can drink very good beers and ales, food , live music all nights, and if you are very drunk and can't drive you can spend the night in pubs as they have accomodation too. Visit the Guinnes beer factory, easy to find by the particularly and good smell thats its around there. Weather its allmost always cloudly and rainy as it normal in the island.

The River Liffey is a river in Ireland, which flows through the centre of Dublin. Its major tributaries include the River Dodder, the River Poddle and the River Camac. The river supplies much of Dublin's water and a range of recreational activities.[1]

Beautiful river with a great view, city and wildlife together. Tour ferries are available here as well. You can enjoy the view, have shopping and grab a bite from restaurants around (including kfc).

Beautiful place to have a walk or to just sit by the river.

Dividing Dublin city in 2, North side to South side

It is not supposed to be possible to walk the full length of the river Liffey - to do that you would be "off road" through bog and wetlands for a lot of the journey - the challenge is not for the faint hearted. However, proud to report that my son Marc finished his walk from the Liffey Head Bog to Poolbeg Lighthouse today, the 27th December 2023. Gwan Marc. The Liffey rises in the Liffey Head Bog between the mountains of Kippure 742 metres (2,434 ft) and Tonduff 642 metres (2,106 ft) in the northern section of the Wicklow Mountains, forming from many streamlets near the Sally Gap. The underlying geology of this upland area has an impact on the river. The underlying granite bedrock was formed during the Devonian Period between 415 and 360 million years ago. There there are dams at three locations along the river - hydroelectric power stations (Poulaphouca, Golden Falls and Leixlip). There is one waterfall called Pol-a-Phuca or the Daemon's Hole, is about one mile from the village of Ballymore Eustace - in rainy seasons, when the river is much swollen, the fall is calculated at 150 feet in height. Leixlip, Lucan, Celbridge, Athgarvan and Ballymore Eustace are some towns in Ireland passed by River Liffley because it ends in Dublin. The Liffley has a number of tributaries, which include River Camac, River Poddle, River Dodder, and King’s River. Drinking water accounts for circa 60% of the water flow on the river (no Guinness was not created by usingthe water from the Liffey - although the brewery is located on the river). The river flows for 132 km through Wicklow, Kildare and Dublin before entering the Irish Sea in Dublin Bay - best way to see it out to sea is at the Poolbeg Lighthouse. Who named this ancient river? The Liffey, Abhainn Life, Avenlif and Joyce's Anna Livia Plurabelle - all these names most likely derive from Magh Life, the rich plain or Magh of County Kildare through which the Liffey loops and curls on her way to the sea.

No words needed, but... stunning city, beautiful people!

One of the must see locations in Dublin City. I was here at the end of Storm Ciara and I have to say, it made amazing cloud formations in the sky at night. Even though the wind was whipping by, I still enjoyed walking along the banks of the river in the Heart of Dublin. It used to be my regular hangout while I was living there and I didn't realize how much I missed it until this visit.

Beautiful surroundings.

The River Liffey divided Dublin historically, but today the River Liffey complements this fine city. Try to resist taking a picture when you cross a beautiful bridge; the River Liffey truly complements Dublin. Don't swim in the River Liffey.

Its a river flowing within the Dublin city. As per the tides, the level of the water could be more or less. Sometimes, there are water sports available as well such as kayaking. The north and south side of the city is on the opposite sides of the river.

It's beautiful on a still night to walk the waterfront of River Liffey, Dublin.

As a boy I spent alot of time swimming the river in Ringsend. It wasn't a clean river then but it never stopped us. We also rowed skiffs in the annual regatta, competition was the way of the fishing village. A wonderful area to be part of the community as a non resident who went to the school from infants to leaving cert what a joy. I visit every time I return to Ireland, not too much has changed in the last 50 years. The community still prevails of which my family ancestors have had a long link to it on Pidgeon hse rd.

So lovely River 💙 night and day
