Cobh–Passage West Ferry

Highlight • Structure

Short 5-minute crossing between Carrigaloe (Cobh) and Glenbrook (Passage West). Daily service from 06:15/06:30 to 21:30. Handy connection for cyclists and pedestrians making a loop around Cork Harbour. Saves 20–30 minutes compared to the route via the Jack Lynch Tunnel.

Glenbrook Ferry Ramp

Highlight • Rest Area

An open quay with a clear line along the river, once the heart of a busy port and ferry connection. The shipbuilding and trade that took place here for centuries still give the place a quiet historical undertone. This was also an important point along the Old Crosshaven Railway, whose current greenway route follows the old railway line.
