Logistics for visiting 👇🏼 📍Located below the Rock Logistics for visiting 👇🏼

📍Located below the Rock of Cashel (County Tipperary)

🚗 Park at the Rock of Cashel main lot and walk down (about 10–15 minutes through a field and then alongside a road, it’s easy)

⏰ Open access, free to enter, but best to go in daylight

👟 Wear shoes that can get muddy- the ground can be wet and there are cow turds all over 💩 

It’s quiet. It’s open. It feels untouched, and somehow a lot of people miss it.

Make sure to add a visit to Hore Abbey to your Ireland itinerary! 🇮🇪
