Walking the Southern Trail
Ireland
 Ireland's rolling green landscape, much of it untouched by
development, makes it an ideal location for Walking Holidays for
the enthusiast and casual walker alike. Numerous signed walking
routes of note have been developed over the last few years for
the specialists in self-guided walking holidays (hiking tours)
in Ireland.
The Southern Trail is a unique 53 mile stretch of countryside in
West Limerick/North Kerry. It is the route taken by the Limerick
- Tralee railway line, which opened in 1867/1880 and closed in
1975/1977.
If you are planning a walking holiday or a short
break to the Mid Western part of Ireland,
why not check out the
sections of the trail, which have been developed for walking.
The Great Southern Trail Action Group are a non-profit group
working to develop the Limerick to Tralee section of the trail
so that everyone can explore this beautiful region in a safe,
leisurely way by foot or bicycle.
