Make sure you watch out for the tree down before Spiddal bridge, its blocking the left channel.

Just above the main road bridge (between the 'broken weir' and 'poll gorm') there's a tree down spanning around two thirds of the river's width which blocks the regular left line. You can get around it on the river right side but this forces you down through an overgrown section which one wouldn't usually like to run!
