This is a straightforward trail signposted as the "Little River Rail Trail".

It could easily be combined with our "Lets Go Down to Liffeytown" route for an 11km trot, or if you are extra keen on a much longer run the Rail Trail route follows Gilmours Road and Rivers Road to connect with the 23km "Little River Chuggalong" route from out trail directory, all the way to Little River.

Nice route along the old Lincoln Rail line as it headed south.

Park up on Liffey Drive by the reserve and tennis courts. Safe on street parking.
