Ardagh Station

Highlight • Structure

Opened in 1867, it served as a station along the Limerick to Tralee railway line for the next 155 years. It was eventually closed to passenger trains in 1963 and laid derelict until the station house was restored in 2021 as part of the Greenway project.

Limerick Greenway (Newcastle West to Rathkeale)

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The Limerick Greenway is a wonderful, traffic-free pathway that once served as a railway line.

On this section you'll encounter a number of exquisitely crafted overhead bridges, meticulously hewn from locally sourced stone. Once in Ardagh, don't miss the opportunity to explore The Old Station House, situated in close proximity to the historic site where the iconic Ardagh Chalice was discovered in 1868.

Alternatively, take a moment to pause and make a wish at the renowned St. Kieran’s Holy Well.
