Tarbert - John F Leslie Woodland Walk
This walk takes you on track and path through woods on the Leslie Estate overlooking Tarbert Bay at the mouth of the River Shannon with a short section on surfaced road. There is a great variety of flora and fauna to be seen and also views of Counties Clare and Limerick across the water. The walk can be broken into smaller sections.
The John F Leslie Woodland Walk has a Fairy Loop Walk which starts at the gate entering the woodland off the minor road about 700m from the trailhead of the main trail at Tarbert Bridewell Visitor Centre. The Fairy Loop is about 350m long and takes approximately 15 minutes to walk - please follow the Fairy Loop Walk arrows.
