It rises in Co Kildare and flows gently and majestically through County Meath and joins the sea at Drogheda in Co Louth some 112 kilometres later. It has none of the razzmatazz of its sister, the Shannon. It’s neither the longest river in Ireland, nor does it have the greatest flow. What is does have, and by the gallon, is history. In fact, the Boyne Valley is like a time capsule. Travel along it and you travel through millennia of Irish history, from passage tombs that pre-date the Pyramids, to the Hill of Tara, seat of the High Kings of Ireland, all the way to the home of the First World War poet Francis Ledwidge in Slane. It’s the Irish equivalent of Egypt’s Valley of the Kings. And you can choose to explore it by car, bicycle, kayak, or by strolling along its banks and the towpaths of the navigation canals that run alongside from Navan to Oldbridge.” Frances Power - Editor, Cara, the Aer Lingus inflight magazine - Boyne Valley Feature, October/November 2014 Pg 68-78 Cara magazine is available online at issuu.com Contents Towns & Villages 3 Boyne Valley Drive 8 Heritage Trail 9 Golf 11 Biking & Walking 13 Horse Racing 15 Gardens 17 Travelling to Meath & Map 19 Crafts 21 Angling 23 Things to Do 25 Shopping 28 Festivals & Events 29 Accommodation 33 Food & Drink 37 1 2 Image credits: Front cover image by Stephen Keaveny - winner of the 2014 Wiki Loves Monuments national photography competition.

  • Suggested Walks DUBLIN the Great South Wall Walk You Could Literally
    Suggested walks DUBLIN The Great South Wall Walk You could literally not be any more smack-bang in the middle of Dublin Bay if you tried – the path along the South Wall is pretty wide, like a promenade. It's a 4km walk, and takes between 30 - 40 minutes depending on your pace! Ticknock Fairy Castle Loop This is a lovely looped walk with never-ending views of Dublin when you reach the top. Walking time: Roughly 1 hour and 45 minutes. The Killiney Hill Walk There are two different routes to the top that you can take: if you’re after a short walk, drive up as far as the car park on Killiney Hill. If you fancy a longer ramble, take the DART to Dalkey and then walk up to the summit of the hill from there. Walking time: Between 20 and 50 minutes, depending on where you start the walk. The Hellfire Club Walk The Hellfire Club Walk (officially known as the ‘Montpellier Loop Trail’) is a lovely Dublin walk that will treat you to a spectacular panoramic view of Dublin City. Walking time: Roughly 1 hour + (depending on how much time you spend at the top) The Howth Cliff Walk There are a couple of different ways of tackling this walk: you can start it from the DART station for a longer stroll or you can kick it off from the car park at Howth Summit. You will be treated to incredible coastal views throughout. Walking time is 120 minutes on a fine day. Allow for longer if you’re battling the wind in winter! The Malahide to Portmarnock Coastal Walk This is one of the many Dublin walks that are perfect for those of you looking for a moderate ramble with friends on level ground that offers great ocean views throughout.
