‘Its not Cork but is still very close and with the motorway only 35 minutes drive from city. Its just outside Mitchelstown on the Tipperary border.
Its so beautiful. A suspension buggy could maneuver it no prob. There are two loops. We did the longest at 7km. A lot of it was stone track. The river is close and the trees are amazing. Read more details at www.irishtrails.ie
Defo recommend a picnic. There’s a youth hostel lodge en route with a lovely grass area to sit and relax.’
