County Longford Tourism Strategy

Sustainable tourism the way forward for County Longford

With the principle of sustainable tourism at its heart, the County Longford Tourism Strategy: Developing a connected sustainable tourism destination is a fresh vision for tourism in County Longford. 

The five-year strategy is a roadmap for tourism in County Longford up to and including 2027 and is available to view and download from Longford.ie.

Sustainable tourism forms the basis of the strategy, accounting for the needs of visitors, tourism industry stakeholders, local communities, and the environment. The key tourism assets in Longford are outlined and Ireland’s Hidden Heartlands vision and objectives are highlighted, along with the relevant policies and plans that this strategy supports. The range of strengths, opportunities and challenges facing Longford are also detailed in the document, compiled following a robust consultation process. Data was gathered through surveys, open public consultation and from the tourism committee members and other stakeholders.

A key part of the strategy involves promoting County Longford as a destination of choice.
