Geography A ring of coastal mountains surrounds low central plains. The highest peak is Carrauntuohill , which is 1,041 m. The island is bisected by the River Shannon, at 386 km (240 miles) the longest river in Ireland. The island's lush vegetation, a product of its mild climate and frequent but soft rainfall, earns it the sobriquet "Emerald Isle". The island's area is 84,412 km². Ireland is divided into four provinces: Connacht, Leinster, Munster and Ulster. Ireland's least arable land lies in the south-western and western counties. These areas are largely spectacularly mountainous and rocky, with beautiful green sights. Ireland is sometimes referred to as being part of the British Isles.
