I like to bring the family out on sunny days in the summer to get a glimpse of nature that you can't see from the cites these days. It's open year-round, but the tourist information and other shops are only open during the peak of summer. There is no fee, but be aware they do close the barrier so if you are parked inside make sure to check when they close. If you haven't been, its well worth the visit. It's one of those places you can't really describe, but have to see sure.

Park was lush and green and surrounded 3 lakes. We hiked to MuckRoss house (didn't take the paid tour), the Abbey, and Torc Waterfall. Lots of history. Torc waterfall was quite a distance away, you'll pass a botanical garden that is gorgeous. Upon arrival to Torc, you'll have access to a variety of either strenuous, moderate, or mild hikes. We chose the tourist route for pics and easy access to the waterfall. A decent size waterfall and worth the trek. Lots of tourist buses park here. Many horse carriage rides available in the park. Not a supporter of that business. But, you'll see beautiful cows grazing the pastures near the MuckRoss house . All in all , we hiked approximately 10 + miles that day! Always be prepared for a little bit of rain and wind. Bring water or a picnic lunch : )

We used to visit Portumna Woods, which is what we used to call it, regularly as children. It was so…read moremuch fun and to us there was only the one walk, marked out with numbered stumps that we use to race each other to reach first. Today its the same but different. The one walk is not how I remember and there are no numbered stumps. But there are new path signs and many more walks, all of different distances and cycling as well as walking is encouraged. The weather on this occasion was fabulous, clear blue skies and a blazing sun, for February it was as good as it could get. But its not always sunny, the last time I was there in January it was milling rain. But it was still great. The trees, the deer (if you are lucky), the water fowl and the lake, this place is really enchanting. There are toilet facilities by the carpark, both of which are free. How good is that!

One of my favourite woodland parks in County Galway. Coole…read moreis situated just a few miles outside the town of Gort in Co.Galway. Coole was originally the home of Lady Gregory who co-founded the Abbey Theatre with W.B.Yeats. Yeats wrote alot of potery whilst visiting Coole. His most well known poems about Coole are "The Wild Swans of Coole" and "To a Squirrel at Kyle-Na-No" Lady Gregory's home was knocked many years ago but the stables have been rennovated in recent years and now hold a visitor centre and coffee shop/cafe. there are wonderful trails arond the park and it's a haven for wildlife. I have spotted red squirrels here. There are also deer in the park and some beautiful swans on Coole Lake. It's a great place to bird watch. Plenty of car parking space and there is a lovely picnic area to be found within the walled garden. Lovely on a Summers day to spend a few hours here.
