Very enjoyable for all ages. Please, watch out, some areas are slippery because of the mud Lovely with close distance to the city. Study some fairy history and come here enjoy the time with them and find a peace in your heart and mind. Nice but a little short, only 1.7Km if you go up to the end of the yellow spur at the top of the red trail and back on the map. A little muddy in spots even on a dry day so had to take shoes off when back at the car Nice little short next to the town of Inishannon. It's so kids friendly. Children will enjoy the easy tracks. Scouting for signs of 'Wanderful' app is an extra fun. 4 star only because I found its car park small. In busy time you need to leave your car in town and back through on the bridge. Short, but nice walk. After rain can be a bit slippery. Full with fairy doors. At some places, nice elevation. Take a to the bridge, it has a long history. On November 1st 1755 a devastating earthquake hit Lisbon, Portugal. This earthquake, known as the Great Lisbon Earthquake, is thought to have had a magnitude of 8.5-9, (though this is just an estimate as no recording equipment existed at the time) and shockwaves were felt across Europe. It created tidal waves which hit coastlines as far away as North Africa, and the boats in Kinsale harbour are said to have spun around on their moorings. The wave travelled up the estuary of the Bandon River from Kinsale as far as Innishannon, completely destroying the bridge here. Having been rebuilt, after the tsuami of 1755 the bridge was again extensively damaged in the severe floods of 1761 and 1765. The Corporation of Bandon paid for the repair of the Innishannon Bridge in 1765 because it was such an important link for the commercial life of the town of Bandon. Innishannon Bridge, in its many guises, has crossed the Bandon River at this point for over three centuries. It has been the chief crossing point for traffic into south western Cork Lovely short through natural woodland. Very quiet and few people know about this little gem A wonderful, clean forest for a walk. This is a big forest and we didn't have an ordinary path, we found paths higher up, there we saw incredibly strange, beautiful trees. Everyone was satisfied with the A great little magical walking spot. Steep sided hill, with deciduous trees. An amazing 'trail' that is neither flat nor laid out on a path. I had a 7 year old with me but I do not suggest any younger. It's a peaceful place. Wonderful! Full of birds! Absolutely lovely.
