    Hiking

    A very beautiful nature park with hiking trails, nature inspires hiking. The park, with its wild and beautiful landscape, extends over 137 hectares and is located in a lush valley on the edge of the Sheehy Mountains. It is not only an ideal place for hiking, but also to get in touch with nature, have a picnic and breathe in the fresh air.

    Hiking

    Forest Park Gougane Barra in Cork, Ireland is a dream destination for any hiking enthusiast. The surroundings are simply stunning, with dense forests, green meadows and a beautiful turquoise lake.

    While the trails aren't always easy, the viewpoints and waterfalls along the way are definitely worth it. The park also surrounds the Monastery of Gougane Barra, which has been an important place of worship and peace for pilgrims for centuries.
