As we live in Sligo we visit Hazelwood regularly, it's a lovely spot. The kids love feeding the ducks and swans (although the swans tend to be a bit "in your face"). The walk around Hazelwood is lovely. Whatever time of the year we visit the landscape always looks different.

Hazel wood is a lovely forest just outside Sligo town, It has trails and lakes and would be great for picnics and jogging or just walking the dog.

"I WENT out to the hazel wood / Because a fire was in my head," - so said Yeats in 1899 in "Song of the Wandering Aengus" and it remains an excellent place to take a calming walk and clear your head. There are not so many of the old sculpture left now but those you can find are interesting... More

A great venue for a short walk next to Lough Gill. There are some marked trails that wend through the woods. The marking could be better, but if you just keep walking they all loop back to the car park anyway. Good views across to Slish Wood and the islands.

I have been visiting Hazelwood or Half Moon Bay as its also known since I was a child. It is a lovely scenic area with a beautiful walk through the woods and a lovely spot for a picnic after the walk. Beautiful in good weather.

When I was little we used to visit this place, it is a magical wood which will excite the imagination of adults and children alike. A little way outside of Sligo but well worth a visit.

We love wood/forest walks and this was perfect.. not too long and not too short, just over an hour. Perfectly placed benches to take in views along the way by the lake.. peaceful.
