Stradbally Copper Coast Geopark Loop

This Cycle route brings you in a loop along a section of the Copper Coast Geopark and takes in the picturesque and historical village of Stradbally, the secluded and dramatic cove of Stradbally beach, the woodlands of the river Tay and the edges of Dungarvan valley. This cycle is entirely on road along mostly quiet and gently undulating local roads and is an introduction to the beautiful landscapes and villages found in this part of Waterford beyond the Greenway itself.
