Bike Park Ireland

Bike Park Ireland is the first official mountain bike park in Ireland offering everyone from beginners to pro's the opportunity to have an action packed day out. With 8 downhill trails to choose from, a seriously cool uplift service, the largest pump track in the country, you will find it hard to contain your smile. We are a family run business and the bike park is entirely on private grounds and it's quite simply the best place in Ireland to come and have fun on a mountain bike. If you have all the gear and a bike, great, bring it - if you don't have anything, that's fine too because we have it all here for you to hire, just bring a pair of shoes with grips and we will take care of the rest. We cannot over emphasise the fact that anyone that can ride a bike will have loads of fun here. We have a large fleet of superb Kona bikes for hire, including helmets and pads, a class cafe called The Mucky Boot Cafe which serves homemade hot food all day. If your not into biking that's fine too as we have a lovely walk to the top of the trails where you can see as many as 8 county's. Our bike park is very family friendly and kids of all ages will spend hours playing around on bikes and lets face it there's a kid in all of us and we all just want to play on bikes every now and then!!!

The Vee

on the R668 between Clogheen and Glenaknockaun West

Reviewed By MT1 - Aurora, United States

We made this drive after leaving Waterford and heading to Cahir. It is a beautiful drive full of nice vistas out in the country - well worth a trip. We made several scenic drives somewhat similar to this during our 16 days in Ireland - Caha Pass, Conor Pass, etc. It's nice to take some time to get away from all the tour busses and major crowds at all the big tourist attractions and just enjoy some quieter time in the beautiful Irish countryside. Make the effort to get here - you won't be sorry ...

Marfield Lake

Reviewed By MatthewW3632 - Callan, Ireland

This is a beautiful man made lake that is teeming with wild life. A must for any bird lover. If you just want somewhere peaceful to walk with the family and feed the ducks it ticks that box too. The roadway is a public road but is one way and is fairly quiet. The lake is located a short walk from the historic Marfield village which is also very picturesque

St. Patrick's Well

St Patrick's Well is located near Clonmel a short distance south of the main Clonmel, Cahir road. It is an old religious site situated in a sheltered glen where a large volume of spring water continuously wells up from underground. The church was built in the seventeenth century, but there are traces of an even older building. Inside the walls is the tomb of Nicholas White of Clonmel who died in 1622. At the centre of the small lake is a weathered Celtic Cross which dates from early Christian times in Ireland.

Reviewed By MatthewW3632 - Callan, Ireland

The well is accesable by steps from the roadway. O ce you get down it is a very tranquil place. If the weather is warm enough you can walk into the waters which are believed to have healing powers. The area is very well kept and very clean. We'll worth a stop off you are in the area
