Questions About Our Riverside Walks?

Find answers about the Ennis Riverside Discovery and Clare Abbey Loop Trail experiences

Our Ennis Riverside Discovery walks run between 90 minutes to 2 hours, while the Clare Abbey Loop Trail takes around 2.5 to 3 hours depending on the route. We pitch everything at a comfortable, moderate pace—there's no rush. We stop regularly to catch our breath, take in the views, and chat about the history we're seeing.

Not at all. Our walks are designed with retirees in mind, so they're gentle and manageable. If you're able to walk for short distances in daily life, you'll be fine. We always have the option to take a shorter route or sit out sections if you need a proper break.

Wear comfortable walking shoes with good grip—you'll encounter some uneven ground, especially on the Clare Abbey trail. Bring layers because the Irish weather can be changeable, a small rucksack with water, and perhaps a light snack. We recommend a hat and sunscreen in warmer months, and a waterproof jacket just in case.

We run guided walks regularly throughout the year, with more frequent departures in spring and summer. The best way to check availability and book is to get in touch with us directly—we'll find dates that work for you and answer any specific questions about your needs.

The Ennis Riverside walk follows mostly paved riverside paths with gentler terrain, making it more accessible. The Clare Abbey Loop does include some woodland trails and countryside paths that can be rougher. If you have specific mobility questions, do contact us—we can discuss which route suits you best or suggest modifications.

Our guided walks include expert commentary on local history, heritage, and wildlife—you're not just walking, you're learning. We keep groups small, usually between 6 and 12 people, so it feels personal and you can ask questions without holding everyone up.
