Carlow’s Hidden Treasures
County Carlow is out of the way of the usual tourist trails and is rarely
explored by foreign tourists, or even visitors from elsewhere in Ireland, but
there are secrets to be discovered on this drive through lushly wooded
countryside. The county is crossed by lovely waterways, including the rivers
Barrow, Slaney and Derry, affording ample opportunities for peaceful
Tankardstown
walks or even a spot of fishing. Tankardstown
