Best places: Nature preserves in Ireland

👍👍 This was, far and above, our favorite thing we did in in Dublin! The beautiful nature and verdant vistas of Howth were enlivened even more by Shane guiding us through the inextricably linked history and myths of this mystical land. While we got a great workout in, it was good for hikers of any fitne...

👍👍 I absolutely adore this forest. There is so much peace and quiet surrounding you. You can walk, run, bike as long as you like without any worries for traffic, or noises. Just birds chirping, and amazing nature.

👍 Amazing scenery. The loop is 10km and easy to do for kids if they are used to walking. If you park at the mill, then I recommend walking anti clockwise, start down the hill from there, left at the junction, then left again pass the bridge and loop around. Going this way children will have smaller hi...

👍👍 This place is fabulous. Just outside Gort its a great place to visit especially if you have children great footpaths and walkways very buggy friendly and loads of open spaces to run around. Coole Park has an amazing history and is well worth a visit.

Nature preserve featuring a long beach, scenic hiking areas & views of migrating birds & wildlife.

👍👍 What a beautiful walk. I happened to be passing to stopped in. It had been on my radar for ages but wasn't sure an hour long drive was with it. It absolutely would be. It starts off the hotel carpark and there is a lovely cafe right there. I got very lucky with a hot sunny day. The walk itself is ve...

Celtic-themed gardens surrounded by 11 acres of wildflower meadows, plus a cafe & a playground.

👍👍 Fabulous woodland area beside Lough Gowna, in County Longford. The walk starts beside the gaelic football pitch and children's play area, so park your car here. Take the gravel path that runs beside the gaelic pitch and after about 10 minutes walk you'll come to a large notice board with a map of th...

👍 Such a stunning part of Wexford. Easily accessible by car but you'd definitely want to bring plenty of water with you especially on a hot day as you'll want to keep hydrated as some parts of the walk can be difficult.

👍👍 We arrived on a sunny day. The Cliffs and blow hope are impressive. Plenty of space to explore different parts and the sea stack is only one in a list of interesting points. It has scenery, history, folklore and is one of the most impressive points I've visited on the wild Atlantic way. Be prepared...

👍 Lovely loop walk, we parked at the free car park and walked following the path from there cutting left across the reservoir and looped around.( You can go straight and loop the other way if you prefer) A good portion of the walk is between fairly high hedges so visibility can be limited but there a...

👍👍 Great for a walk. It's muddy at times so bring your wellies or hiking boots. There is signs saying to keep your dog on a leash but not everyone does that. Parking is limited. Drive in slowly because the road is narrow.

👍👍 Amazing little Island, to arrive from 2 boat Company's, they bring there and pick you up 90 minutes later, so you can explore the Island by yourself, see plants, flowers many breeding gulls and a ruin of a little church from the 8th century, beach is nice to dip your feets in the cold sea. Amazing e...

👍👍 Great tour & guide even though Mother Nature tried her best to throw us off the trail! Mark was fun to venture out with - very social, knowledgeable, great storytelling … made all of us feel special. The end pint & lunch on a cold, windy day was the perfect ending capped off with a video capturing o...

😐 Very beautiful place to go with the kids, great to see the old style farm and museum.. really good place to take children! but.. your website doesn’t inform us about the situation regarding your missing maze … it can’t be called a maze because of no hedges in your maze .. it’s a fenced off zone unt...

👍👍 Lovely place for a walk and to sit and take in the sounds of nature. In the warm summer days it's a lovely place for a picnic.

A bogland reserve teeming with flora and fauna marked by Stone Age dwellings, walls and tombs.

👍 We hiked up to Moylussa and back, not looped but there are looped trails here. Highest point in Co Clare and from the get go the views are gorgeous. Signage from the car park is poor and only further up so you see mention of Moylussa, by which time you have had the opportunity to go wrong two or thr...

👍👍 Absolutely excellent.. .. very comfortable ( weather helped ) informative and relaxing excursion.. We were dropped off at the Blasket (Mór) .. allowed enough time to walk to the top and explore on the way .. and then went around the island and traveled onto two others .. Captain Vincent was fantasti...
