The Curragh

Curragh Plains is a fantastic place to head out for a walk, a cycle, fly a kite or take a picnic on a sunny day. Do take care where you sit – the sheep roam freely, so there can often be sheep dirt.

Moone

There’s a park in Moone with a great wooden playground, goal posts, and good picnic spots.

Clonfert Pet Farm
