Ireland Satellite Map
Ireland occupies an area of 84,421 square kilometers (32,595 sq mi), which is similar in size to the Czech Republic or Georgia (in Europe). One key feature in the Republic of Ireland is the Shannon River which flows 161 miles in a southerly direction to the North Atlantic Ocean. Not only is it the longest river in Ireland, but it’s also the longest in all of the United Kingdom. Along its Shannon River, there are three main lakes that flow within its path. First, the uppermost is Lough Allen near the source of the Shannon River. Next, Lough Ree is the middle and second-largest lake. Finally, Lough Derg is the southernmost of the three major lakes on the Shannon River and the third-largest largest in Ireland.
HILLSHADE
Ireland Elevation Map
The terrain in Ireland is mostly flat. But it becomes more hilly along the west coast. For example, the Nephin Mountains, Twelve Pins, and MacGillycuddy’s Reeks are all situated on the west coast of Ireland. Specifically, the Carrauntoohil is the highest mountain in Ireland at 1,041 meters in height and is part of the MacGillycuddy’s Reeks. On the east coast, the most prominent mountain range is the Wicklow Mountains, which contains the largest continuous upland region in the country.
