Slieve Bloom

LocalHub Information

Just over an hour from Dublin and Limerick and two hours from Cork and Galway the Slieve Bloom are easily accessible from all corners of Ireland. On a clear day, one can see the high points of the four ancient provinces of Ireland. Located in Laois and Offaly they are centre of natural activity.

Hike, horse ride off the beaten track, or try out the brand new Mountain bike trails with all different levels depending on your ability. For more accomplished riders who want high-speed action, there are currently 35km of new mountain bike trails (MTB), with trailheads at Kinnitty and Baunreagh. These trails, which are waymarked in one direction and designed especially for mountain bike use, vary in difficulty.
