AN ABUNDANCE OF AMENITIES

An 18th century, seven-arched bridge, built by George Semple crosses the River Barrow with the splendid Brandon Hill as a majestic backdrop for this village. The Barrow, probably one of the least known, yet magical inland waterways in Europe, meanders through a scenic valley steeped in history and heritage.
A popular boating centre and base for pleasure barges, the river Barrow provides an enviable amenity for families who enjoy boating, swimming and fishing, with salmon, trout and excellent coarse fishing available. For water sports enthusiasts, this inland town offers exciting river adventures for all ages. The Graiguenamanagh Regatta that takes place on the Bank Holiday every August is reputed to be the oldest Regatta on Ireland’s inland waterways.

Duiske Abbey, a fine example of an early Cistercian Abbey with its nave of over two hundred feet, forms a landmark in the centre of the village. It contains many fine Lancet windows and has a large effigy of a Norman Knight. The Abbey nestles in the shadow of Mount Brandon to the south west with the Blackstairs Mountains protecting it to the east.

For the outdoor enthusiast there are an abundance of exciting activities available including a signposted walk, the South Leinster Way which has been established to the summit of Brandon Hill. Scenically situated in nearby St. Mullins is also the starting point of the Barrow Way, with the option of a shorter walk, the 6km Sli na Slainte route which commences outside the graveyard, passes through Bahana Wood and returns via Templenabo to the village.
