Limerick’s parks are oases of greenspace, where regardless of the season, you can enjoy a refuge from the stresses of everyday life as well as prime locations for getting your steps in and outdoor gatherings with friends and family. Whether you’re beating a path for jogging or walking, enjoying being out in nature or just looking for a spot to walk the dog, Limerick’s public parks offer all this and more.
Did you know that there are approximately 450 acres of public open space in Limerick city alone? From playgrounds, dog parks and nature parks to urban forests and large open spaces, Limerick’s parks have their own unique characteristics and all are cherished by locals and visitors alike.
Make sure to check out town parks including Adare, Abbeyfeale and Croom if you’re looking for a relaxing stroll; Griston Bog or Baggot Estate Nature Park to uncover some rich flora and fauna or Curraghchase Forest Park and Mungret Park if you’re in search of a longer walk, with designated trails and lots to explore.
Offering picturesque views, fresh air and in some cases seasonal activities, they all provide the chance to escape the hustle and bustle and enjoy being active in the outdoors.
Wherever you are in Limerick, you’re never that far from some greenery.
