The Limerick Greenway is a wonderful, traffic-free pathway that once served as a railway line.
On this section you'll encounter a number of exquisitely crafted overhead bridges, meticulously hewn from locally sourced stone. Once in Ardagh, don't miss the opportunity to explore The Old Station House, situated in close proximity to the historic site where the iconic Ardagh Chalice was discovered in 1868.
Alternatively, take a moment to pause and make a wish at the renowned St. Kieran’s Holy Well.
