Easy walking on the Rath Wood Forest Trail
The Woodland Walks project is the first of its kind in Ireland and is a partnership between Coillte, a landowner (Rathwood) and a local community group. There is a short wheelchair / child’s buggy walk to a lake and a longer looped walk through the 185 acre Wood. Access to all walks is from Rathwood’s car park.
Helen Dillon is a renowned plants woman, writer, lecturer and broadcaster. With her inimitable style, Helen’s workshops are guaranteed to appeal to everyone from the reluctant gardener to the green fingered enthusiast.
