One of our favourite places to go with our kids and visitors if we have a bit more time. The park is very well kept with many signposted walks, from easy low level walks to more challenging walks crossing the water and along the hilltops.

We got married in the church and have spend lots of time in and around the park. It is a breathtakingly beautiful spot.

Thankfully, a friend of mine recommended (on the advice of locals) that my husband and I visit Gougane Barra Forest Park. I am so glad that we took an afternoon to drive to the park (about an hour away) and explore the lush, vivid green trails.
