Wet n Wild in Kilkenny

It may be a landlocked County, but there is plenty of wet n wild activities on offer in Kilkenny. Home of the three sisters, the River Barrow, Nore and Suir, you can explore all corners of the County via the vast river network from a kayak or even take a waterside bike ride along the Nore from Kilkenny City.

For the more adventurous amongst us, Kilkenny is only a short trip to Tramore surf beach with warm water temperatures for the Spring season. Or even try your hand at Stand Up Paddle Boarding right in the centre of Kilkenny City.

A favourite with families is the newly launched Climbing Wall and Tree-Top Adventure Walks at the Castlecomer Discovery Park, where you can explore rural Kilkenny from a different perspective.
