Neil from Louth

Nice, easy-going forest walk that brings you through a forest and lake-side setting with great views out over the lake. You'll come across some very interesting trees that Coillte have taken the time to highlight and explain with wooden signage. Some information is displayed regarding the history and the landscape of the lake too.
