Set against the stunning backdrop of the Shannon Estuary along the Wild Atlantic Way, The Knights Walk offers a peaceful haven for walkers to get out and about in nature.
The looped trail weaves its way through open countryside and native woodland where majestic oak, beech and ash trees provide a natural habitat for flora, fauna and wildlife. Watch out for Irish red squirrels who are very much at home here!
Savour the sweeping views across the estuary and surrounding countryside from the viewing platform at Tullyglass Hill, the highest point of Glin Demesne. Descending from Tullyglass Hill, the tree lined vista once again opens up for more breathtaking views below!
