At the highest point of 527 metres, the Slieve Bloom Mountains are one of the oldest mountains in Europe, along with the Massif Central in France. Rich in flora and fauna, and a wide variety of bird species, this is a haven for nature enthusiasts. Enjoy the magical beauty of the many glens, woodlands, waterfalls, and the sound of birdsong as you explore.
There are many walking trails, driving routes, and mountain bike trails suitable for those looking for an adventurous hike, or a family day out. Slieve Bloom looped walks can be found at Kinnity, Cadamstown, Clonaslee, Glenbarrow, and Monicknew trailheads.
