Questions people ask
What is there to do in Ballinamore?
21 places inside Ballinamore and 138 more within twelve kilometres, mostly lakes, hills and woods.
How is indoors or outdoors decided?
By what kind of place each one is: a museum is indoors, a park is not, a castle is some of each. OpenStreetMap carries an indoor tag on about one visitor place in three hundred, so a filter built on the tag would hide almost everything. This is a rule about kinds of place, not a claim about any one of them.
Does with kids mean it is suitable for my child?
No. It means the kind of place children generally do: playgrounds, beaches, parks, zoos, museums. The map records an age limit on a handful of places in the country, so nothing here claims a place suits a particular age.
What does it cost, and when is it open?
This page does not say. OpenStreetMap records a fee on about one visitor place in sixty and opening hours on one in fifty, so stating either would mean guessing for almost everything. Each place's own page shows what the map does hold and links to the operator.
How do you get to Ballinamore?
7 bus and train lines call at a stop in Ballinamore in the published timetable, run by Bus Éireann, TFI Local Link Cavan Monaghan and TFI Local Link Donegal Sligo Leitrim. Which of them runs on the day you are going, and how long it takes from where you are starting, is worked out on the Getting to Ballinamore page.
Places are OpenStreetMap records and each links to the one it came from. Indoors, outdoors and with kids are worked out from what kind of place a thing is, not from tags on it, because the tags exist on almost none of them. Visit lengths are a default for each kind. Distances are straight lines from the centre of Ballinamore.
