St. Declan’s Way

In the heart of the Knockmealdowns hikers will join St. Declan’s Way. The ancient path runs from the Rock of Cashel in Tipperary to the Cliffs of Ardmore in Waterford, where St. Declan first established a monastery during the 5th century. Over the centuries millions of pilgrims, warriors and adventurers have walked along these ancient roads.
