Cycling

Cycling is probably one of the most enjoyable ways to view Ireland’s idyllic countryside. Meander along the River Shannon without the worry of parking spots, stop and start at your own leisure. Escape the bustle of urban life with a range of routes for all levels, from experienced cyclists to a relaxing family cycle.

Here at the Castle Oaks House Hotel we can provide bike hire contact information, self-guided routes, as well as secure facilities if you decide to bring your own bike. Not only do we have routes around the Shannon, through beautiful Co. Limerick and Co. Clare country side, but we are close to Ballyhoura Mountain Bike Trails, so there really is something for every cyclist!
