This route is suitable for all the family as it is flat, over half of it follows the old Dungarvan to Waterford Railway line and the remainder is on minor road including Clonea Road. The railway provides the opportunity to enjoy the cycle and the scenery without traffic, while the return route offers some wonderful views of Dungarvan Bay and Clonea Strand is well worth a visit.
