Experience the epic Waterford Greenway, a walking and cycling off-road trail. The spectacular 47.8km route runs from Waterford City to Dungarvan along an old railway line.

Take some time to discover the delights of the Waterford Greenway. The cycling and walking paths follow the gently flowing River Suir beside the rugged Comeragh Mountains.

Spot the stone bridges, see the impressive viaducts and explore the Ballyvoyle (Durrow) tunnel, one of the most notable landmarks on the route. Stop at one of the pretty picnic spots and immerse yourself in the hidden history of the stunning greenway. Bask in the beautiful scenery, the incredible views of Dungarvan Bay and the shimmering sea are truly mesmerising.

The Waterford Greenway can be completed in one day or you can walk or cycle a section at a time, stopping in some of the picturesque towns and villages along the route. Cycle from Kiloteran to Kilmacthomas or walk from Durrow to Clonea, to admire some of the breathtaking coastal scenery.
