50 years to the day after the last passenger train journey between Waterford and Dungarvan the line is back in action, this time as Ireland’s longest greenway. Stretching 46 km from Waterford City to Dungarvan this off road paved path is suitable for all ages and abilities. The route takes walkers and cyclists from the River Suir in Waterford City all the way to the sea in Dungarvan through some of the most beautiful landscapes in Ireland.
As Sport Ireland chief executive, and Olympic silver medallist, John Treacy said: “Having a world-class facility like the Greenway, with its beautiful vista and fantastic amenities, will encourage and provide opportunities to people of all ages, the length and breadth of Waterford, to get out and get active”. We couldn’t have said it better ourselves John! So get out there and make the most of this wonderful amenity.
