Best Hikes to Kilkenny Castle
Tips
  • Good things come to those who wait: Kilkenny Castle took 800 years to build and the result is truly magnificent. The first stone for the fortified castle was laid in the 13th century after the Normans had conquered the country. Today most of the building has been remodeled in the Victorian style. After visiting the historic walls, the extensive park with rose garden and lake invites you to take a stroll. You can quench your hunger and thirst in the Tea Room.

  • Beautiful well kept castle in a stunning little town. The gardens and inside the castle are pristine and on a good sunny day beautiful to look at.
