    A hidden gem in Waterford city. Great for walking your dog, especially at the upper level. A 2km loop around the bottom also has workout stations dotted along.

    2km circular route suitable for walking or jogging. Also has permanent orienteering course. Maps available via Waterford sports partnership website or Waterford orienteering club site. Great views of the city from atop the hill

    2km circuit. Built on the old Waterford City Municipal Dump of all things! Great to see such restoration to this area of the city. A nice place to walk or run or sit and watch the birds but the planting and general greens-keeping has deteriorated over the years. Storm damage had not been 100% removed/repaired and a lot of planting was removed for some reason. I would think the lack of natural habitats would impinge on a nature park? Otherwise it’s a nice walking path with markers every 100m so you know how far you’ve travelled. Nice touch. Good views of city from the top level.

    (Translated by Google) A great place to relax for the whole family. You can go jogging and getting up here. Going for a walk as well as admire the sunrise and sunset on the hill, which is also well adapted to recreation, parking is available. I heartily recommend this place. (Original) Świetne miejsce na wypoczynek dla całej rodziny. Można tutaj pobiegać i się pogimnastykować. Wyjście na spacer jak również podziwiać wschody i zachody słońca na górce, która również jest dobrze przystosowana do rekreacji, parking jest dostępny. Polecam serdecznie to miejsce.

    Alovely walking park ,not too many hills at all ,if only people would clean up after their dogs do their business ,but the corporation could help by putting a few bins around the park as there is not one in the whole walking area ,there is one at each entry area but that is it

    Peaceful oasis, just off the Waterford to Tramore road, hidden behind the Kingfisher Leisure Centre. Popular place for walking with a fairly level 2k perimeter walk and a number of other trails which go over the top of the hill at the centre of the nature park. Good view from the top of the hill on a clear day, worth the climb.

    I love walking my dog in the nature park but in the last couple of months, broken glass is always around on the top by the childrens play area, and its dangerous if a little kid falls on it and if a dog cuts his paws, please check this out, it is ruining our walk.

  • 4/5 Proper GAA h. 2 years ago on Google
    A fine place for walk. You wouldn't be twisted with the tiredness after it. There's a hillock that you can go up that has a kind of a playground up on it. There are some views of Waterford city from up on it. Although, its meant to be a nature park, and I didn't see any animals. Well, I saw some dogs being walked, but I don't think that counts seeing as its not their natural habitat. There were plenty of different outdoor gym yokes, if that's your thing. The young wans were swinging off poles there for hours. If the car parks full, which it usually is, you can park in the noble Supervalu around the corner.

  • 4/5 The-Whippet1 7 years ago on Google
    Lovely place, lovely walk only down side is people bringing there dogs and not picking up the crap they leave in the middle of the walkway can't understand why owners don't pick it up

  • 4/5 Paul D. 2 years ago on Google
    Came across the park almost by accident but we were lucky we did. It's a beautiful walk with great views of Waterford. You have to try the amazing audio feature at the top, 2 concave concrete acoustic discs spaced by some distance, yet you talk at normal volume and can be heard clearly at the other end. Mind blowing. My only problem was finding the car park. You have to drove through a swimming and sports centre with private car park signs everywhere before you get to the public car park. It's not clearly marked.

  • 3/5 Dáithi O. 4 years ago on Google
    It's free. There is a cafe close by. Lots of parking. Space for joggers, and cyclists and other fitness enthusiasts. One guy decided it was a good idea to blast some EDM music, have his shirt off and do pull ups on a bar. He was looking for attention and he got it, but I don't think people were having the thoughts about him that he imagined. And there is lots of nature around. I mean it was okay I guess, but some things out me off. It's situated on some kind of water treatment plant. It's nice that they utilized the area in such a way, but it's definitely not more than a 3 in terms of aesthetics. There are busy roads close by, ugly buildings dotted around, at least one water reservoir we saw that was fenced off. Not a pretty sight to be honest. So a fair 3 out of 5 I think. It's serves its purpose, good to have around, but far from idyllic.

    Nice place for walking a dog owners of aggressive dogs could keep a closer eye on there dog my dog was attacked there owner didn't care and I pay the bill owner was on a bicycle

  • 5/5 Jamie H. 5 years ago on Google
    Amazing views from the top on a clear day, lively activity during the weekends. There's a mix of slopes, flats and stepped routes to choose from depending on what you're reason is.... Be it out for a casual walk, running or training on the outdoor gyms which are dotted along the way. If you're into longboarding like myself, there is a smooth sloping route from the top section down towards the monkey bars on the lower path. A perfect spot to build some speed and do some carving. If you're looking for a peaceful outdoor experience or a place to push your physical limits - I highly recommend this spot!

  • 3/5 Ruth P. 3 years ago on Google
    I generally liked here because it was safe, few different routes to walk. Great for dog's, children and sport. However, I had one bad experience which has prevented me from going back. I got locked in, Manguard security were called to open the gate, he refused credit card (Cash Only) and verbally abused me and my 2 yr old son. I reported the incident to the Garda, City Council and Kingfisher.

  • 5/5 Shane M. 6 years ago on Google
    A great place to walk in Waterford. Once a refuse site (or dump) the area is now a 2km circular walk. There is an upper wall also which gives very good views of Waterford city and on a good day views to the comeragh mountains. The park is adjacent to a sports facility and there is a café there if you want to refuel. Overall a nice place to walk.

    While I appriciate having something, I dont appriciate being brought to a paved over old dump surrounded by a toxic moat of filthy water and being told its a nature preserve. Its not a nature preserve, its a place you can walk without being confronted by p-p-p-private p-p-p-property, no trespassing signs which is sorely lacking in Ireland as a whole. Grand for a walk with grandma and the dog but almost zero nature
